Topical application of daphnetin hydrogel for traumatic brain injury.

Background: Traumatic brain injury (TBI) causes neuronal cell damage and dysfunction. According to previous studies, daphnetin (Dap) has a protective effect in neurological injury. However, the bioavailability of daphnetin is not high.

A cuproptosis-based prognostic model for predicting survival in low-grade glioma.

Background: It is unknown what variables contribute to the formation and multiplication of low-grade gliomas (LGG). An emerging process of cell death is called cuproptosis. Our research aims to increase therapeutic options and gain a better understanding of the role that cuproptosis-related genes play in the physical characteristics of low-grade gliomas.

Anacardic acid improves neurological deficits in traumatic brain injury by anti-ferroptosis and anti-inflammation.

Background: Traumatic brain injury (TBI) is an important cause of disability and death. TBI leads to multiple forms of nerve cell death including ferroptosis due to iron-dependent lipid peroxidation. Anacardic acid (AA) is a natural component extracted from cashew nut shells, which has been reported to have neuroprotective effects in traumatic brain injury.

PBX2-Mediated circTLK1 Activates JAK/STAT Signaling to Promote Gliomagenesis via miR-452-5p/SSR1 Axis.

Glioma is considered one of the most lethal brain tumors, as the aggressive blood vessel formation leads to high morbidity and mortality rates. However, the mechanisms underlying the initiation and progression of glioma remain unclear. Here, we aimed to reveal the role of circTLK1 in glioma development.

The nuclear transporter importin-11 regulates the Wnt/β-catenin pathway and acts as a tumor promoter in glioma.

Karyopherins mediate the macromolecular transport between the cytoplasm and the nucleus and participate in cancer progression. However, the role and mechanism of importin-11 (IPO11), a member of the karyopherin family, in glioma progression remain undefined. Effects of IPO11 on glioma progression were detected using CCK-8, colony formation assay, flow cytometry analysis, caspase-3 activity assay, and Transwell invasion assay.

Hypoxia-Responsive Lipid-Polymer Nanoparticle-Combined Imaging-Guided Surgery and Multitherapy Strategies for Glioma.

Glioma is the most prevalent type of malignant brain tumor and is usually very aggressive. Because of the high invasiveness and aggressive proliferative growth of glioma, it is difficult to resect completely or cure with surgery. Residual glioma cells are a primary cause of postoperative recurrence.

Injectable postoperative enzyme-responsive hydrogels for reversing temozolomide resistance and reducing local recurrence after glioma operation.

Glioma is the most aggressive primary malignant brain tumor. The eradication of the gliomas by performing neurosurgery has not been successful due to the diffuse nature of malignant gliomas. Temozolomide (TMZ) is the first-line agent in treating gliomas after surgery, and its therapeutic efficacy is limited mainly due to the high activity levels of the DNA repair protein O6-methylguanine-DNA methyltransferase (MGMT) in glioma cells.

Combined Delivery of Temozolomide and siPLK1 Using Targeted Nanoparticles to Enhance Temozolomide Sensitivity in Glioma.

Introduction: Temozolomide (TMZ) is the first-line chemotherapeutic option to treat glioma; however, its efficacy and clinical application are limited by its drug resistance properties. Polo-like kinase 1 (PLK1)-targeted therapy causes G2/M arrest and increases the sensitivity of glioma to TMZ. Therefore, to limit TMZ resistance in glioma, an angiopep-2 (A2)-modified polymeric micelle (A2PEC) embedded with TMZ and a small interfering RNA (siRNA) targeting (siPLK1) was developed (TMZ-A2PEC/siPLK).

Correction to: Co-delivery of GOLPH3 siRNA and gefitinib by cationic lipid-PLGA nanoparticles improves EGFR-targeted therapy for glioma.

The correct affiliation no 2 is presented in this paper.

Co-delivery of GOLPH3 siRNA and gefitinib by cationic lipid-PLGA nanoparticles improves EGFR-targeted therapy for glioma.

Glioblastoma is one of the most aggressive types of brain tumor. Epidermal growth factor receptors (EGFRs) are overexpressed in glioma, and EGFR amplifications and mutations lead to rapid proliferation and invasion. EGFR-targeted therapy might be an effective treatment for glioma.

Hypoxic Radiosensitizer-Lipid Coated Gold Nanoparticles Enhance the Effects of Radiation Therapy on Tumor Growth.

Radiotherapy (RT) has become one of the most effective treatments for malignant tumor. Intra-tumoral hypoxia is recognized as a chief reason that induces resistance to radiation. Moreover, the toxicities of RT to normal tissues limits the usage of high doses of radiation to eliminate cancer cells.

Self-assembled angiopep-2 modified lipid-poly (hypoxic radiosensitized polyprodrug) nanoparticles delivery TMZ for glioma synergistic TMZ and RT therapy.

The addition of temozolomide (TMZ) to radiotherapy (RT) improves survival of patients with glioblastoma (GBM). However, TMZ + RT causes excess toxicity in patients. In this study, we prepared angiopep-2 (A2) modified lipid-poly (hypoxic radiosensitized polyprodrug) nanoparticles for TMZ delivery (A2-P(MIs)25/TMZ) to achieve synergistic effects against glioma.
