The invasive region of glioblastoma defined by 5ALA guided surgery has an altered cancer stem cell marker profile compared to central tumour (2017)
Journal Article
Smith, S. J., Diksin, M., Chhaya, S., Sairam, S., Estevez-Cebrero, M. A., & Rahman, R. (2017). The invasive region of glioblastoma defined by 5ALA guided surgery has an altered cancer stem cell marker profile compared to central tumour. International Journal of Molecular Sciences, 18(11), https://doi.org/10.3390/ijms18112452

Glioblastoma, a WHO grade IV astrocytoma, is a highly aggressive and heterogeneous tumour that infiltrates deeply into surrounding brain parenchyma, making complete surgical resection impossible. Despite chemo-radiotherapy, the residual cell populati...

The molecular and phenotypic basis of the glioma invasive perivascular niche (2017)
Journal Article
Diksin, M., Smith, S. J., & Rahman, R. (2017). The molecular and phenotypic basis of the glioma invasive perivascular niche. International Journal of Molecular Sciences, 18(11), Article 2342. https://doi.org/10.3390/ijms18112342

Gliomas are devastating brain cancers that have poor prognostic outcomes for their patients. Short overall patient survival is due to a lack of durable, efficacious treatment options. Such therapeutic difficulties exist, in part, due to several gliom... Read More about The molecular and phenotypic basis of the glioma invasive perivascular niche.

MicroRNA regulation of glycolytic metabolism in glioblastoma multiforme (2017)
Journal Article
Alfardus, H., McIntyre, A., & Smith, S. J. (2017). MicroRNA regulation of glycolytic metabolism in glioblastoma multiforme. BioMed Research International, 2017, https://doi.org/10.1155/2017/9157370

Glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) is the most aggressive and common malignant brain and central nervous system tumour. A well-known hallmark of GMB, and many other tumours, is aerobic glycolysis. microRNAs (miRNAs) are a class of short non-protein coding...
