These results demonstrate that DHC acts as a chemosensitizing agent selective for glioma cells not affecting non-tumor cells. Considering tumor heterogeneity, DHC demonstrated an anti-cancer potential to activate different cell death pathways. DHC demonstrated could be used for chemotherapy and immunotherapy applications in glioblastomas in the future.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
