Abstract:Recent evidence from our laboratory provided proof-of-concept for therapeutic potential for glioblastoma (GBM) of a combination strategy based on radiation and adjuvant doxorubicin-loaded liposomes (LIPs) conjugated with a modified Apolipoprotein E-derived peptide (mApoE), known to facilitate Blood Brain Barrier (BBB)-crossing. Significant glioma stem cell (GSC) apoptosis, tumor growth inhibition and increased overall survival were observed in vivo upon combined treatment offering attractive and innovative the… Show more
