Differentiation therapy for glioblastoma – too many obstacles?

The therapeutic potential of differentiation therapy for glioblastoma will depend on the robustness and stability of the differentiated state. We recently reported several obstacles to bone morphogenetic protein (BMP)-induced differentiation therapy. Improved understanding of the mechanisms that tum...

Sumario:The therapeutic potential of differentiation therapy for glioblastoma will depend on the robustness and stability of the differentiated state. We recently reported several obstacles to bone morphogenetic protein (BMP)-induced differentiation therapy. Improved understanding of the mechanisms that tumor cells use to escape differentiation commitment is urgently needed.
