Ultrastructural and immunohistochemical insights on the anti-glioma effects of a dual-drug cocktail in an experimental model.

Glioma coined as 'butterfly tumor' exhibits intense heterogeneity at the molecular and cellular levels. Although, Temozolomide exerted a long-ranging and prevailing therapeutic effect against glioma, albeit it has provided modest survival outcome. Fucoidan, (marine brown algal derivative) has demonstrated potent anti-tumor effects including glioma.

A combination of metformin and epigallocatechin gallate potentiates glioma chemotherapy .

Glioma is the most devastating high-grade tumor of the central nervous system, with dismal prognosis. Existing treatment modality does not provide substantial benefit to patients and demands novel strategies. One of the first-line treatments for glioma, temozolomide, provides marginal benefit to glioma patients.

Can artificial intelligence overtake human intelligence on the bumpy road towards glioma therapy?

Gliomas are one of the most devastating primary brain tumors which impose significant management challenges to the clinicians. The aggressive behaviour of gliomas is mainly attributed to their rapid proliferation, unravelled genomics and the blood-brain barrier which protects the tumor cells from chemotherapeutic regimens. Suspects of brain tumors are usually assessed by magnetic resonance imaging and computed tomography.

Will CRISPR-Cas9 Have Cards to Play Against Cancer? An Update on its Applications.

Genome editing employs targeted nucleases as powerful tools to precisely alter the genome of target cells and regulate functional genes. Various strategies have been risen so far as the molecular scissors-mediated genome editing that includes zinc finger nuclease, transcription activator-like effector nucleases, and clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats-CRISPR-related protein 9. These tools allow researchers to understand the basics of manipulating the genome, create animal models to study human diseases, understand host-pathogen interactions and design disease targets.
