Antiangiogenic therapy and mechanisms of tumor resistance in malignant glioma (2010)
Journal Article
Rahman, R., Smith, S., Rahman, C., & Grundy, R. (2010). Antiangiogenic therapy and mechanisms of tumor resistance in malignant glioma. Journal of Oncology, 2010, 1-16. https://doi.org/10.1155/2010/251231

Despite advances in surgery, radiation therapy, and chemotherapeutics, patients with malignant glioma have a dismal prognosis. The formations of aberrant tumour vasculature and glioma cell invasion are major obstacles for effective treatment. Angioge...

Pediatric brain tumor cancer stem cells: cell cycle dynamics, DNA repair, and etoposide extrusion (2010)
Journal Article
Hussein, D., Punjaruk, W., Storer, L. C. D., Shaw, L., Othman, R. T., Peet, A., …Coyle, B. (2011). Pediatric brain tumor cancer stem cells: cell cycle dynamics, DNA repair, and etoposide extrusion. Neuro-Oncology, 13(1), 70-83. https://doi.org/10.1093/neuonc/noq144

Reliable model systems are needed to elucidate the role cancer stem cells (CSCs) play in pediatric brain tumor drug resistance. The majority of studies to date have focused on clinically distinct adult tumors and restricted tumor types. Here, the CSC...

Histone Deacetylase Inhibition Attenuates Cell Growth with Associated Telomerase Inhibition in High-Grade Childhood Brain Tumor Cells (2010)
Journal Article
Rahman, R., Osteso-Ibanez, T., Hirst, R. A., Levesley, J., Kilday, J., Quinn, S., …Grundy, R. G. (2010). Histone Deacetylase Inhibition Attenuates Cell Growth with Associated Telomerase Inhibition in High-Grade Childhood Brain Tumor Cells. Molecular Cancer Therapeutics, 9(9), 2568-2581. https://doi.org/10.1158/1535-7163.mct-10-0272

Aberrant epigenetic regulation of gene expression contributes to tumor initiation and progression. Studies from a plethora of hematologic and solid tumors support the use of histone deacetylase inhibitors (HDACi) as potent anticancer agents. However,...
