Research Abstract |
We developed the method for concentrating and enriching Glioma stem cell(GSC) by subcutaneous implantation of malignant glioma cells into nude mice. By this method we could obtained tumor cells including abundant GSCs. We have been identifying a new molecule specific for GSC by some molecular biological techniques, however, we have not yet found the most suitable molecule. In parallel, we mixed temozolomide and fibrin glue and investigated the anti-tumor effect of this drug in the mouse model. We found the efficacy of this drug and we think we should search for an optimal molecular target drug.
