pentoxifylline and Glioblastoma

pentoxifylline has been researched along with Glioblastoma in 3 studies

Glioblastoma: A malignant form of astrocytoma histologically characterized by pleomorphism of cells, nuclear atypia, microhemorrhage, and necrosis. They may arise in any region of the central nervous system, with a predilection for the cerebral hemispheres, basal ganglia, and commissural pathways. Clinical presentation most frequently occurs in the fifth or sixth decade of life with focal neurologic signs or seizures.

"Six human glioblastoma cell lines were tested for the effect of pentoxifylline treatment at maximum G2/M block on the basis of cell survival, mitotic activity, and micronucleus formation after exposure to gamma radiation."3.79In vitro radiosensitization by pentoxifylline does not depend on p53 status.
