Background/aim: Glioblastoma is an incurable cancer with limited treatment options and a low survival rate. Temozolomide is the standard marketed small-molecule agent for glioblastoma therapy; therefore, we aimed to find new drugs among the marketed medicines for brain diseases because of their cerebral migratory property and found lomerizine, used for the treatment of migraine.
Materials And Methods: We evaluated the effect of lomerizine and its metabolites against U251 glioblastoma cells and temozolomide-resistant cells, T98G and GB-1, caused by the expression of O(6)-methylguanine-DNA methyltransferase or P-glycoprotein, compared with temozolomide, and combined with it.

Nanoparticles functionalized with anti-transferrin receptor antibodies have shown promising results in facilitating nanoparticle uptake by endothelial cells of brain capillaries and post-capillary venules. This approach offers a potential alternative to the direct conjugation of biologics to antibodies.
