Journal ArticleDOI

HMGB1 Mediates Endogenous TLR2 Activation and Brain Tumor Regression

TL;DR: Evidence is provided for the molecular and cellular mechanisms that support the rationale for the clinical implementation of antibrain cancer immunotherapies in combination with tumor killing approaches in order to elicit effective antitumor immune responses, and thus, will impact clinical neuro-oncology practice.
Journal ArticleDOI

Gene Therapy and Targeted Toxins for Glioma

TL;DR: This review will examine the available preclinical models for glioma including xenographs, syngeneic and genetic models to determine which strategies will provide rapid tumor regression and long-term protection from recurrence.
Journal ArticleDOI

Gene therapy-mediated delivery of targeted cytotoxins for glioma therapeutics

TL;DR: A regulatable adenoviral vector encoding a mutated human IL-13 fused to Pseudomonas exotoxin that specifically binds to IL13Rα2 to provide sustained expression, effective anti-GBM cytotoxicity, and minimal neurotoxicity is developed, representing a significant advance in the development of targeted therapeutics for GBM.
Journal ArticleDOI

B Cells Are Critical to T-cell—Mediated Antitumor Immunity Induced by a Combined Immune-Stimulatory/Conditionally Cytotoxic Therapy for Glioblastoma

TL;DR: This article showed that modifying the tumor microenvironment through intratumoral administration of adenoviral vectors (Ad) encoding the conditional cytotoxic molecule, i.e., HSV1-TK and the immune-stimulatory cytokine (Flt3L) leads to T-cell-dependent tumor regression in rodent models of glioblastoma.
