troglitazone and Astrocytoma, Grade IV

troglitazone has been researched along with Astrocytoma, Grade IV in 5 studies

Troglitazone: A chroman and thiazolidinedione derivative that acts as a PEROXISOME PROLIFERATOR-ACTIVATED RECEPTORS (PPAR) agonist. It was formerly used in the treatment of TYPE 2 DIABETES MELLITUS, but has been withdrawn due to hepatotoxicity.

" The results of the present study show that the anti-diabetic drug troglitazone sensitizes human glioma and neuroblastoma cells to TRAIL-induced apoptosis."3.73Troglitazone sensitizes tumor cells to TRAIL-induced apoptosis via down-regulation of FLIP and Survivin. ( Böck, B; Eckert, A; Oevermann, L; Ramacher, D; Roth, W; Schultze, K; Wiestler, O, 2006)
"However, its expression in brain tumors has not been studied."1.31Expression of PPARgamma and its ligand-dependent growth inhibition in human brain tumor cell lines. ( Fujieda, M; Kato, M; Nagaya, T; Saito, K; Seo, H; Yoshida, J, 2002)
