## Abstract Malignant gliomas display aggressive local behavior and are not cured by existing therapy. Some cell lines that are considered radioresistant respond to low radiation doses (<1 Gy) with increased cell killing (lowβdose hypersensitivity). In our study, 4 of 5 human glioma cell lines exhi

Several anti-human glioma cytotoxic conjugates were studied in vitro. Monoclonal antibodies (MAbs) to the GE 2 gliomaassociated antigen (anti-GE 2) and MAbs to HLA-DR antigens (D1/12) or human diferric transferrin (Tfn) were linked to the potent cytotoxin ricin (anti-GE 2-ricin) or to its A subunit
The mechanism of increased sensitivity to etoposide (VP-16) in a human bladder cancer cell line (J82/MMC-2), which is G9-fold more resistant to mitomycin C (MMC) compared with parental cells (J82/WT), was investigated. Colony formation assays, following 1 hr drug exposure, revealed that about a 2.2-
Six human soft-tissue sarcoma and 14 glioma cell lines, exhibiting considerable differences in radioresponsiveness and histological grade of differentiation of the parental tumour, were examined with respect to apoptosis development after irradiation with @Co y-rays. After test doses of 6 and 25 Gy,
## Background: High grade gliomas represent very aggressive and lethal forms of human cancer, which often exhibit recurrence after surgical intervention and resistance to conventional chemotherapeutic and radiologic treatment. the clinically approved antihypertensive agent sodium nitroprusside (snp
