Abstract

Glioblastoma is one of the most aggressive and deadly forms of cancer, posing significant challenges for the medical community. This review focuses on key aspects of Glioblastoma, including its genetic differences between primary and secondary types. Temozolomide is a major first-line treatment for Glioblastoma, and this article explores its development, how it works, and the issue of resistance that limits its effectiveness, prompting the need for new treatment strategies. Gene expression profiling has greatly advanced cancer research by revealing the molecular mechanisms of tumors, which is essential for creating targeted therapies for Glioblastoma. One important protein in this context is DDX3X, which plays various roles in cancer, sometimes promoting it or otherwise suppressing it. Additionally, autophagy, a process that maintains cellular balance, has complex implications in cancer treatment. Understanding autophagy helps to identify resistance mechanisms and potential treatments, with Chloroquine showing promise in treating Glioblastoma. This review covers the interplay between Glioblastoma, DDX3X, and autophagy, highlighting the challenges and potential strategies in treating this severe disease.
