Outline of Final Research Achievements

We have reported that inhibition of glycogen synthase kinase 3β(GSK3β)supresses proliferation of glioblastoma cell.Existing drugs which have inhibitory effect for GSk3β inhibit cell proliferation and invasion of glioblastoma in vitro and in vivo.These drugs supress nestin positive cells, that means reduction of stemness og glioblastoma.According to analysis of expression of active form of GSK3β for surgical spiecimens, progression free survival and overall survival of patients with high level expression is worse than patients with low expression.
