| Down-regulation | Phosphorylation | AKT1 | hsa207 | |
| In Vitro Model | U-251MG | Astrocytoma | Homo sapiens (Human) | CVCL_0021 |
| Result | The study showed that the combination between TMZ and TAU has a potential in anticancer properties against U-251 MG manifested by the induction of G2/M arrest and apoptosis. These results suggest that this combination may be useful to enhance the efficacy and reduce some adverse events of GBM treatment in the future. | |||
