Novel multi-drugs incorporating hybrid-structured nanofibers enhance alkylating agent activity in malignant gliomas
Background: Malignant gliomas (MGs) are highly chemotherapy-resistant. Temozolomide (TMZ) and carmustine (BiCNU) are alkylating agents clinically used for treating MGs. However, their effectiveness is restrained by overexpression of the DNA repair protein O 6 -methylguanine-DNA methyltransferase (MG...
