Glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) is the most prevalent and aggressive primary brain tumor in adults, characterized by a poor prognosis significant resistance to existing treatments. Despite progress therapeutic strategies, median overall survival remains approximately 15 months. A hallmark of GBM its intricate molecular profile, driven disruptions multiple signaling pathways, including PI3K/AKT/mTOR, Wnt, NF-κB, TGF-β, critical growth, invasion, treatment resistance. This review examines epidemiology, mechanisms, prospects targeting these pathways GBM, highlighting recent insights into pathway interactions discovering new targets improve patient outcomes.

Neurological disorders such as Alzheimer's disease, stroke, and brain cancers are difficult to treat with current drugs their delivery efficacy the is severely hampered by presence of blood-brain barrier (BBB). Drug systems have been extensively explored in recent decades aiming circumvent this barrier. In particular, polymeric nanoparticles shown enormous potentials owing unique properties, high tunability, ease synthesis, control over drug release profile. However, careful analysis performance effective transport across BBB should be performed using clinically relevant testing models. review, nanoparticle for central nervous system discussed an emphasis on effects particle size, shape, surface modifications penetration. Moreover, authors critically analyze vitro vivo models used evaluate penetration efficacy, including latest developments BBB-on-a-chip Finally, challenges future perspectives development combat neurological discussed.

Unfortunately, cancer characterized by genetic alterations in host's cells, leading uncontrolled cellular proliferation evasion surveillance. Cancer immunotherapy aims educate not only recognize but also attack kill mutated cells. While checkpoint blockers have been proven be effective against multiple types advanced cancer, overall patient response rate still remains below 30%. Therefore, there an urgent need improve current immunotherapies. In this Account, we present overview our recent progress nanoparticle-based strategies for improving vaccines We other complementary give well-rounded snapshot field combination immunotherapy.

Glioblastoma (GBM) is the most popular primary central nervous system cancer and has an extremely expansive course. Aggressive tumor growth correlates with short median overall survival (OS) oscillating between 14 17 months. The rate of patients in a three-year follow up oscillates around 10%. interaction proteins programmed death-1 (PD-1) cell death ligand (PD-L1) creates immunoregulatory axis promoting invasion glioblastoma multiforme cells brain tissue. PD-1 pathway maintains immunological homeostasis protects against autoimmunity. PD-L1 expression on surface promotes receptor activation microglia, resulting negative regulation T responses. induce secretion by various receptors such as toll like (TLR), epidermal factor (EGFR), interferon alpha (IFNAR), interferon-gamma (IFNGR). Binding to activates protein tyrosine phosphatase SHP-2, which dephosphorylates Zap 70, this inhibits proliferation downregulates lymphocyte cytotoxic activity. Relevant studies demonstrated that glioma WHO grading could be considered biomarker. Studies preclinical GBM mouse models confirmed safety efficiency monoclonal antibodies targeting PD-1/PD-L1 axis. Satisfactory results significant regression mass longer animal time were observed. Monoclonal inhibiting are being tested clinical trials concerning recurrent multiforme.

Although the global prevalence of neurological disorders such as Parkinson's disease, Alzheimer's glioblastoma, epilepsy, and multiple sclerosis is steadily increasing, effective delivery drug molecules in therapeutic quantities to central nervous system (CNS) still lacking. The blood brain barrier (BBB) major obstacle for entry drugs into brain, it comprises a tight layer endothelial cells surrounded by astrocyte foot processes that limit drugs' entry. In recent times, intranasal has emerged reliable method bypass BBB treat diseases. route with both solution particulate formulations been demonstrated repeatedly preclinical models, including human trials. key features determining efficacy via include olfactory area nares, longer retention time at nasal mucosal surface, enhanced penetration through epithelia, reduced metabolism cavity. This review describes important disorders, challenges disordered CNS, new techniques designed overcome these facilitate more efficient targeted delivery. potential treatment possibilities transfer will increase development devices.

Abstract Glioblastoma (GBM) is the highest-grade form of glioma, as well one most aggressive types cancer, exhibiting rapid cellular growth and highly invasive behavior. Despite significant advances in diagnosis therapy recent decades, outcomes for high-grade gliomas (WHO grades III-IV) remain unfavorable, with a median overall survival time 15–18 months. The concept cancer stem cells (CSCs) has emerged provided new insight into GBM resistance management. CSCs can self-renew initiate tumor are also responsible cell heterogeneity induction systemic immunosuppression. idea that could be dependent on innate differences sensitivity clonogenic glial (GSCs) to chemotherapeutic drugs/radiation prompted scientific community rethink understanding therapies directed at eliminating these or modulating their stemness. This review aims describe major intrinsic extrinsic mechanisms mediate chemoradioresistant GSCs based antineoplastic agents from natural sources, derivatives, synthetics used alone synergistic combination conventional treatment. We will address ongoing clinical trials focused promising targets. Although development effective remains challenge molecular oncology, GSC knowledge offer directions future.

Glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) is a highly aggressive form of brain cancer that difficult to treat due its resistance both radiation and chemotherapy. This largely the unique biology GBM cells, which can evade effects conventional treatments through mechanisms such as increased cell death rapid regeneration cancerous cells. Additionally, blood–brain barrier makes it for chemotherapy drugs reach leading reduced effectiveness. Despite these challenges, there are several treatment options available GBM. The standard care newly diagnosed patients involves surgical resection followed by concurrent chemoradiotherapy adjuvant Emerging include immunotherapy, checkpoint inhibitors, targeted therapies, bevacizumab, attempt attack specific vulnerabilities in Another promising approach use tumor-treating fields, type electric field therapy has been shown slow growth Clinical trials ongoing evaluate safety efficacy other innovative GBM, intending improve with outcomes patients.
