| Abstract | Glioblastoma is an aggressive malignancy, which is notorious for its poor prognosis. Although Temozolomide (TMZ) has been showed to be an effective chemotherapeutic agent for glioblastoma treatment, the response rate is far from satisfactory. As a natural compound with anti-cancer activity against a variety of cancers, Hispidulin is a good candidate drug for combination therapy. This study is designed to determine whether Hispidulin could potentiate the anti-tumor activity of TMZ in glioblastoma. Cell proliferation and apoptosis were determined by MTT assay and Hoechst staining, respectively. Expression of proteins relevant to apoptosis and proliferation was detected by Western blotting. Our in vitro assays showed that Hispidulin enhanced the anti-tumor activity of TMZ in glioblastoma by both inhibiting cell proliferation and inducing cell apoptosis. The anti-tumor activity of Hispidulin and the enhanced TMZ anti-tumor activity by Hispidulin induced the activation of AMPK signaling pathway. Our results showed that Hispidulin, by activating AMPK, exhibited anti-tumor activity and potentiated the anti-tumor activity of TMZ in glioblastoma. Although further preclinical and clinical studies are needed, this study provides insight for using Hispidulin as a chemosensitizing agent in clinic settings. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
