| Popis: |
Glioblastoma, the most dangerous and aggressive type of CNS tumor, appears resistant to many chemotherapy drugs. In the patient-derived glioma cell lines NULU and ZAR, which exhibit drug-resistant phenotypes, we investigated the effect of combined AE (Aloe-emodin) and TMZ (temozolomide) and found a significant additive inhibitory effect on cell growth and a promising cytotoxic effect on both cell lines compared to treatment with single agents. We also examined the effect of combined AE and TMZ treatment on the drug-resistance protein MGMT. The results suggest that using AE combined with traditional drugs restores drug resistance in both primary resistant cell lines (NULU and ZAR). Furthermore, migration assays and scratch tests showed that the combined use of AE and TMZ can slow down the colony formation and migration of glioblastoma cells. These convincing results suggest that AE could be a natural adjuvant agent to potentiate the effects of traditional drugs (TMZ) and overcome drug resistance in glioblastoma cells. |
