Objective To provide evidence for the mechanism of Chinese medicine to treat glioma. We observe the effects of Si wei xiao xiu yin combined with chemotherapy on the growth of subcutaneous xenografts in nude mice and the expression of miRNA-21 and miRNA-221 in tumor tissues. Methods The subcutaneous transplantation model of nude mice was established by subcutaneous inoculation of glioma U87 cell suspension. They were randomly divided into saline group, traditional Chinese medicine group, temozolomide group and traditional Chinese medicine combined with temozolomide group to observe the changes in body weight, and the tumor weight, length, short diameter, volume of mice. The relative expression levels of miRNA-21 and miRNA-221 in tumor tissues were detected by qRT-PCR, and the differences between groups were compared. Results After 28 days of gavage, the tumor growth of the other three groups was slower than that of saline group, and the difference was most significant in the combination group (P=0.008 less then 0.05), besides, the relative expression of the three groups of miRNA-21 and miRNA-221 was significantly inhibited compared with saline group, and the difference was significant in the combination group (F=8.918, P=0.010 less then 0.05). Conclusion To some extent, Si wei xiao xiu yin combined with temozolomide can inhibit the growth of subcutaneous xenografts in glioma nude mice. The mechanism may be related to the inhibition of miRNA-21 and miRNA-221 expression.Glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) is one of the most aggressive types of brain tumor in humans. The prognosis for patients with GBM is unfavorable and treatment is largely ineffective, where modern treatment regimens typically increase survival by 15 months. GBM relapse and progression are associated with cancer stem cells (CSCs). The present review provides a critical analysis of the primary reasons underlying the lack of effectiveness of modern CSC management methods. An emphasis is placed on the role of the blood-brain barrier in the development of treatment resistance. The existing methods for increasing the efficiency of antitumor genotoxic therapy are also described, and a strategy for personalized regulation of CSC based on post-genome technologies is suggested. The hypothesis that GBM cells employ a special mechanism for DNA repair based on their interactions with normal stem cells, is presented and the function of the tumor microenvironment in fulfilling the antitumor potential of normal stem cells is explained. Additionally, the mechanisms by which cancer stem cells regulate glioblastoma progression and recurrence are described based on novel biomedical technologies.Glioblastoma (GB) is one of the most aggressive human brain tumors. this website The prognosis is unfavorable, its treatment is relatively ineffective, and the median survival is about 15months. Medication development with new chemical compounds is one of the ways to solve the problem of current treatment inefficiency. This study is focused on the group of chemical substances, based on pentacyclic system of 12H-pyrido[1,2-a3,4-b]diindole, and the most well-known part of this group is fascaplysin, first extracted from the sponge Fascaplysinopsis spp. We have synthesized a series of the following fascaplysin derivatives 7-phenylfascaplysin, 3-chlorofascaplysin, 3-bromofascaplysin, 9-bromofascaplysin. The paper is aimed at analyzing the cytotoxic effect of these compounds on GB cells. Materials and methods The study used rat glioma C6 cell line (ATCC®; cat no CCL-107), U-87MG cell line (ATCC; cat no. HTB-14™) and human glioblastoma T98-G cells (ATCC® CRL-1690™). Cell culture method, experimental pharmacological trials and γ-radiation in vitro, as well as flow cytofluorometry were used in the study. Results Cytotoxic effect of the tested compounds is stronger than the effect of unsubstituted fascaplysin, and appears to be dose-dependent and time-dependent. 3-bromofascaplysin is more efficient for
