Pioneering research at Tel Aviv University led by Dr. Lior Mayo has succeeded in eradicating glioblastoma, a deadly form of brain cancer. Researchers found two important mechanisms in the brain that promote tumor growth and survival: One protects cancer cells from the immune system, while the other provides the energy needed for rapid tumor growth. The research found that astrocytes, which are brain cells, regulate both modes and that when they disappear, the tumor cells die and are eliminated. Read more

Ground-breaking research at Tel Aviv University successfully eradicated glioblastoma, a deadly form of brain cancer. The researchers achieved the result by developing a strategy based on their finding of two crucial mechanisms in the brain that promote tumor growth and survival: one shields cancer cells from the immune system, while the other provides the energy needed for rapid tumor growth. The research discovered that astrocytes, which are brain cells, regulate both methods, and that when they aren’t there, tumor cells die and are eliminated.  Read more

Glioblastoma is one of the most aggressive types of brain cancer known to man. For many, the chance of survival is often low. However, a new type of brain tumor therapy could help change things for the better. The therapy, which relies on destroying the “power source” of the cancer, has shown considerable success in mice. The scientists are hopeful it will work the same in humans. Read more

An Israeli study has eliminated glioblastoma, the deadliest brain tumor, in mice by identifying and destroying its “energy source.” The Tel Aviv University scientists behind the peer-reviewed research are now working to identify drugs to replicate the effects in humans. They’re hoping to find an existing drug that might work, and then reuse it, which they think could happen within two years if things go smoothly. Read more
