aminoglutethimide and Glioma

aminoglutethimide has been researched along with Glioma in 2 studies

Aminoglutethimide: An aromatase inhibitor that is used in the treatment of advanced BREAST CANCER.
aminoglutethimide : A dicarboximide that is a six-membered cyclic compound having ethyl and 4-aminophenyl substituents at the 3-position.

Glioma: Benign and malignant central nervous system neoplasms derived from glial cells (i.e., astrocytes, oligodendrocytes, and ependymocytes). Astrocytes may give rise to astrocytomas (ASTROCYTOMA) or glioblastoma multiforme (see GLIOBLASTOMA). Oligodendrocytes give rise to oligodendrogliomas (OLIGODENDROGLIOMA) and ependymocytes may undergo transformation to become EPENDYMOMA; CHOROID PLEXUS NEOPLASMS; or colloid cysts of the third ventricle.

"Incubation of C6 glioma cells in the presence of aminoglutethimide, an inhibitor of cholesterol metabolism, together with either adenosine 3',5'-cyclic monophosphate (cAMP) analogues or agents that increase cAMP synthesis, such as cholera toxin, forskolin, and isoproterenol, stimulated the rate of pregnenolone formation by their isolated mitochondria."3.69Regulation of C6 glioma cell steroidogenesis by adenosine 3',5'-cyclic monophosphate.
