The highly infiltrative nature of GBM is one of the main reasons this cancer is so difficult to completely remove surgically. Therefore increasing our knowledge of the mechanism GBM cells use to invade normal brain is of critical importance in designing novel therapies. We recently showed that tumor associated microglia stimulate GBM cell invasion and this process is mediated by… Show more
