Role of microRNAs in gliomagenesis: targeting miRNAs in glioblastoma multiforme therapy
19 Jul 2012
Abstract excerpt
INTRODUCTION: Gliomas consist of a very heterogeneous group of malignant tumors, accounting for 50 - 60% of primary brain tumors. Despite all the efforts of cytoreductive surgery in combination with intense chemoradiotherapy, glioblastoma multiforme (GBM, glioma grade IV) still has a dismal prognosis. Current research is focused on molecular targeting to overcome resistance to conventional therapy. MicroRNAs...
