Coculture with astrocytes reduces the radiosensitivity of glioblastoma stem‐like cells and identifies additional targets for radiosensitization
30 Oct 2015
Abstract excerpt
Toward developing a model system for investigating the role of the microenvironment in the radioresistance of glioblastoma (GBM), human glioblastoma stem-like cells (GSCs) were grown in coculture with human astrocytes. Using a trans-well assay, survival analyses showed that astrocytes significantly decreased the radiosensitivity of GSCs compared to standard culture conditions. In addition, when irradiated in...
