Clinical Relevance and Interplay between miRNAs in Influencing Glioblastoma Multiforme Prognosis.

Glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) is usually treated with surgery followed by adjuvant partial radiotherapy combined with temozolomide (TMZ) chemotherapy. Recent studies demonstrated a better survival and good response to TMZ in methylguanine-DNA methyltransferase ()-methylated GBM cases. However, approximately 20% of patients with -unmethylated GBM display an unexpectedly favorable outcome.
