Dynamic interaction between glioma cells and their microenvironment: targeting Rac1 as a therapeutic approach

Rac1 has been described as a major player in glioma invasion and progression. The development of novel anti Rac1 inhibitors, such as 1A-116, provides a targeted rational approach to counteract glioma progression. This therapeutic strategy could affect the glioma cell behavior as well as its interpla...

Descrição
Resumo:Rac1 has been described as a major player in glioma invasion and progression. The development of novel anti Rac1 inhibitors, such as 1A-116, provides a targeted rational approach to counteract glioma progression. This therapeutic strategy could affect the glioma cell behavior as well as its interplay with the microenvironment. Further studies are needed to validate the effectiveness of this novel molecules and their use in glioma progression.
