Targeting novel long non-coding RNA may improve glioblastoma treatment (opens in new tab)

Scientists have discovered that increased expression of a novel long non-coding RNA drives glioblastoma cell growth alongside a genetic amplification found in more than half of glioblastoma tumors, according to a Northwestern Medicine study published in Nature Cell Biology. The findings may inform new therapeutic strategies that improve treatment sensitivity and response in glioblastoma, said Shi-Yuan Cheng, PhD, professor ...
