pioglitazone and Glial Cell Tumors

pioglitazone has been researched along with Glial Cell Tumors in 10 studies

Pioglitazone: A thiazolidinedione and PPAR GAMMA agonist that is used in the treatment of TYPE 2 DIABETES MELLITUS.
pioglitazone : A member of the class of thiazolidenediones that is 1,3-thiazolidine-2,4-dione substituted by a benzyl group at position 5 which in turn is substituted by a 2-(5-ethylpyridin-2-yl)ethoxy group at position 4 of the phenyl ring. It exhibits hypoglycemic activity.

Research Excerpts

ExcerptRelevanceReference
"Gliomas are the most common primary tumors of the central nervous system."5.37Peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor γ agonist pioglitazone inhibits β-catenin-mediated glioma cell growth and invasion. ( Chen, J; Lan, Q; Ma, Y; Shao, B; Shen, A; Shi, J; Shi, W; Wan, Z, 2011)
"A phase II trial was initiated to analyze the activity of continuously administered pioglitazone and rofecoxib combined with low-dose chemotherapy (capecitabine or temozolomide) in patients with high-grade gliomas (glioblastoma or anaplastic glioma)."5.12Low-dose chemotherapy in combination with COX-2 inhibitors and PPAR-gamma agonists in recurrent high-grade gliomas - a phase II study. ( Baumgart, U; Bogdahn, U; Hau, P; Hirschmann, B; Kunz-Schughart, L; Muhleisen, H; Reichle, A; Ruemmele, P; Steinbrecher, A; Weimann, E, 2007)
"These data indicate that pioglitazone crosses the blood-brain barrier and has antineoplastic effects in this glioma xenograft model and may be of potential use in treatment of malignant gliomas."3.79The PPARγ agonist pioglitazone crosses the blood-brain barrier and reduces tumor growth in a human xenograft model. ( Blankenship, D; Caprariello, A; Dechant, A; Grommes, C; Karlo, JC; Landreth, GE, 2013)
"In this study the authors explored the benefits of treating C57B1/6 mice with an established intracerebral glioma by combining immunotherapy with interleukin (IL)-2-secreting syngeneic/allogeneic fibroblasts administered into the tumor bed along with the chemotherapeutic agent pioglitazone, a thiazolidinedione (TZD)."3.74Prolonged survival of mice with established intracerebral glioma receiving combined treatment with peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-gamma thiazolidinedione agonists and interleukin-2-secreting syngeneic/allogeneic fibroblasts. ( Cohen, EP; Feinstein, DL; Glick, RP; Lichtor, T; Lin, H; Spagnolo, A, 2007)
"Gliomas are the most common primary tumors of the central nervous system."1.37Peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor γ agonist pioglitazone inhibits β-catenin-mediated glioma cell growth and invasion. ( Chen, J; Lan, Q; Ma, Y; Shao, B; Shen, A; Shi, J; Shi, W; Wan, Z, 2011)
"Glioblastoma represent the most common primary brain tumor in adults and are currently considered incurable."1.35PPARgamma and RXRgamma ligands act synergistically as potent antineoplastic agents in vitro and in vivo glioma models. ( Heneka, MT; Hermes, M; Kummer, MP; Orlandi, M; Papi, A; Tatenhorst, L; Terwel, D, 2009)
