      The infiltrative nature of Glioblastoma (GBM), the most aggressive primary brain tumor, critically prevents complete surgical resection and masks tumor cells behind the blood brain barrier reducing the efficacy of systemic ...
    • Elucidating tumour-associated microglia/macrophage diversity along glioblastoma progression and under ACOD1 deficiency 

      Pires-Afonso, Yolanda; Muller, Arnaud; Grzyb, Kamil; Oudin, Anaïs; Yabo, Yahaya A.; Sousa, Carole; Scafidi, Andrea; Poli, Aurélie; Cosma, Antonio; Halder, Rashi; Coowar, Djalil; Golebiewska, Anna; Skupin, Alexander; Niclou, Simone Pierrette; Michelucci, Alessandro (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)
      In glioblastoma (GBM), tumour-associated microglia/macrophages (TAMs) represent the major cell type of the stromal compartment and contribute to tumour immune escape mechanisms. Thus, targeting TAMs is emerging as a promising ...
    • Long-term treatment with valganciclovir improves lentiviral suicide gene therapy of glioblastoma 

      Hossain, Jubayer; Latif, Md Abdul; Ystaas, Lars Andreas Rømo; Ninzima, Sandra; Riecken, Kristoffer; Muller, Arnaud; Azuaje, Fransisco; Vareecal Joseph, Justin; Talasila, Krishna Mukharji; Ghimire, Jiwan; Fehse, Boris; Bjerkvig, Rolf; Miletic, Hrvoje (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019)
      Background: Suicide gene therapy for malignant gliomas has shown encouraging results in the latest clinical trials. However, prodrug application was most often restricted to short-term treatment (14 days), especially when ...
    • Patient-derived organoids and orthotopic xenografts of primary and recurrent gliomas represent relevant patient avatars for precision oncology

      Dirkse, Anna; Golebiewska, Anna; Buder, Thomas; Nazarov, Petr V.; Muller, Arnaud; Poovathingal, Suresh K.; Brons, Nicolaas H. C.; Leite, Sonia; Sauvageot, Nicolas; Sarkisjan, Dzjemma; Seyfrid, Mathieu; Fritah, Sabrina; Stieber, Daniel; Michelucci, Alesandro; Hertel, Frank; Herold-Mende, Christel; Azuaje, Francisco; Skupin, Alexander; Bjerkvig, Rolf; Deutsch, Andreas; Voss-Böhme, Anja; Niclou, Simone Pierrette (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019-04-16)
      The identity and unique capacity of cancer stem cells (CSC) to drive tumor growth and resistance have been challenged in brain tumors. Here we report that cells expressing CSC-associated cell membrane markers in Glioblastoma ...
    • Temozolomide-induced rna interactome uncovers novel lncrna regulatory loops in glioblastoma 

      Fritah, Sabrina; Muller, Arnaud; Jiang, Wei; Mitra, Ramkrishna; Sarmini, Mohamad; Dieterle, Monika; Golebiewska, Anna; Ye, Tao; van Dyck, Eric; Herold-Mende, Christel; Zhao, Zhongming; Azuaje, Francisco; Niclou, Simone Pierrette (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020-09-10)
      Resistance to chemotherapy by temozolomide (TMZ) is a major cause of glioblastoma (GBM) recurrence. So far, attempts to characterize factors that contribute to TMZ sensitivity have largely focused on protein-coding genes, ...
