Immunological Evasion in Glioblastoma
Glioblastoma is the most aggressive tumor in Central Nervous System in adults. Among its features, modulation of immune system stands out. Although immune system is capable of detecting and eliminating tumor cells mainly by cytotoxic T and NK cells, tumor microenvironment suppresses an effective response through recruitment of modulator cells such as regulatory T cells, monocyte-derived suppres...
متن کاملImmune Evasion Strategies of Glioblastoma
Glioblastoma (GBM) is the most devastating brain tumor, with associated poor prognosis. Despite advances in surgery and chemoradiation, the survival of afflicted patients has not improved significantly in the past three decades. Immunotherapy has been heralded as a promising approach in treatment of various cancers; however, the immune privileged environment of the brain usually curbs the optim...
متن کاملMechanisms of evasion to antiangiogenic therapy in glioblastoma.
Recognition of the role of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) in developing the rich vascularity of glioblastomas, which contributes to their growth and resistance to radiation, surgery, and chemotherapy, has led to clinical trials of agents targeting VEGF or VEGF receptors 1 and 2. VEGF has been targeted with the mouse anti-human VEGF antibody avastin (bevacizumab), which has undergone ...

متن کاملImmunological characterization of glioblastoma cells for immunotherapy.
The aim of this study was the immunological characterization of glioblastoma cells. Glioblastoma cell lines were cultured in serum and serum-free neurobasal (NBE) medium conditions. These cell lines were characterized by flow cytometry, reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR), western blot and natural killer (NK) cell-cytotoxicity assays. A previously described NK cell expansio...
