Podcast

Javier Orozco-Mera, MD, FACS, MSc, discusses signaling pathways and molecular mechanisms involved in the relapse of glioblastoma.

Javier Orozco-Mera, MD, FACS, MSc, a neurosurgeon in the Department of Neurosurgery at Hospital Universitario del Valle “Evaristo García,” University of Valle, spoke with CancerNetwork® about his study titled, Signaling Pathways in the Relapse of Glioblastoma, which was published in the journal ONCOLOGY®.

In his study, Orozco-Mera and his colleagues identified a several signaling pathways and molecular processes that are involved in glioblastoma relapse, including markers such as O-6-methylguanine-DNA methyltransferase, micro-RNA, EGFR, and P53.
