Recent studies show that the expression of CCND1, a key factor in cell cycle control, is increased following the progress and deteriotation of glioma and predicts poor outcomes. On the other hand, dysregulated deubiquitinase USP10 also predicts poor prognosis for patients with glioblastoma (GBM). In the present study, we investigated the interplay ...

It is often straightforward to distinguish glioblastoma (GBM) from metastatic carcinoma by cytology; however, small cell variants of GBM or GBM with primitive neuronal component (GBMPNC) can mimic metastatic small cell carcinoma (SCC). Herein, we report a case of GBMPNC mimicking metastatic SCC and present cytological and ultrastructural findings. ...
Background: Glioblastoma is a particularly common and very aggressive primary brain tumour. One of the main causes of therapy failure is the presence of glioblastoma stem cells that are resistant to chemotherapy and radiotherapy, and that have the potential to form new tumours. This study focuses on validation of eight novel antigens, TRIM28, nucle...
Glioblastoma is the most aggressive and lethal primary brain malignancy, with an average patient survival from diagnosis of 14 months. Glioblastoma also usually progresses as a more invasive phenotype after initial treatment. A major step forward in our understanding of the nature of glioblastoma was achieved with large-scale expression analysis. H...

Several epidemiologic, clinical and experimental reports indicate that nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) could have a potential as anticancer agents. The aim of this study was the evaluation of cytotoxic potential in human glioblastoma cells of novel synthesized NSAID derivatives, obtained by linking, through a spacer, α-lipoic acid (AL...
World Health Organization grade IV diffuse gliomas, known as glioblastomas, are the most common malignant brain tumors, and they show poor prognosis. Multimodal treatment of surgery followed by radiation and chemotherapy is not sufficient to increase patient survival, which is 12 to 18 months after diagnosis. Despite extensive research, patient lif...

Glioblastoma cases are often treated with aggressive resection. Recent studies have suggested that extended surgical resection could improve survival. Improved extent of resection could be afforded by the use of fluorescence during surgery. We aimed to examine the effect of fluorescence on the results of gross total resection (GTR) and its impact o...
Možganski tumor glioblastom (GB) je najpogostejši in najagresivnejši primarni tumor osrednjega živčnega sistema pri odraslih. Zdravljenje je zaradi odpornosti tumorja na kemo- in radioterapijo ter nepopolne kirurške odstranitve neuspešno. K temu prispeva heterogenost GB. Rakave celice so v tumorju obdane s kompleksnim tumorskim mikrookoljem. Medcel...

Acquired chemoresistance is a major limiting factor in the clinical treatment of glioblastoma (GBM). However, the mechanism by which GBM acquires therapeutic resistance remains unclear. Here, we aimed to investigate whether METTL3-mediated N6-methyladenosine (m6A) modification contributes to the temozolomide (TMZ) resistance in GBM. We demonstrated...

Simple Summary Glioblastoma (GBM) is the most common and aggressive primary brain tumor. Diffusion kurtosis imaging (DKI) has characterized non-Gaussian diffusion behaviors in brain normal tissue and gliomas, but there are very limited efforts in investigating treatment responses of kurtosis in GBM. This study aimed to investigate whether any param...
