HDJ-2 as a target for radiosensitization of glioblastoma multiforme cells by the farnesyltransferase inhibitor R115777 and the role of the p53/p21 pathway

Resistance of glioblastoma multiforme to radiotherapy poses a major clinical challenge. Farnesyltransferase inhibitors (FTI), such as R115777, have potential to increase radiotherapeutic benefit in this disease, although their mechanism of action is unclear. In our study with eight glioblastoma mult...
