## Abstract The platelet‐derived growth factor receptor (PDGFR) is a tyrosine kinase, implicated in the development and progression of different tumors, including gliomas. Chemoresistance is a common feature of malignant gliomas. Since receptor tyrosine kinases contribute to chemoresistance in tumo
## Abstract ## BACKGROUND. In previous experimental models, because of its ability to inhibit the activity of platelet‐derived growth factor β receptor, imatinib decreased the interstitial fluid pressure and improved the delivery and efficacy of anticancer drugs, including fluorouracil. The object
