Glioma is a common primary malignant brain neoplasms which is characterized with easy recurrence and poor prognosis. The overall survival of glioma patients is not satisfying. Tumor treating fields (TTFields) is an emerging low-toxicity treatment for solid neoplasms, and its technical basis is to form an anti-tumor electric field in a specific area. TTFields can inhibit the proliferation of tumor cells through inhibiting cell mitosis, replicating stress, inducing autophagy and apoptosis, and inhibiting DNA damage and repair, and induce the cell death without affecting normal cells in the resting phase. At present, TTFields has been approved for various types of gliomas and is gradually becoming an effective treatment protocol for glioma following surgery, radiotherapy and chemoradiotherapy. Many preclinical and clinical studies have confirmed that TTFields inhibits glioma cells and significantly increases the overall survival rates of patients.This paper reviews the progress of related researches.

Heat shock protein 47 (HSP47) is mainly involved in regulating collagen folding, secretion and maturation in the tumor microenvironment (TME) and is widely amplified in human cancers. HSP47 has been shown to be overexpressed in a variety of extracranial tumors. In glioma, the expression of HSP47 correlates with the grading of glioma and is involved in proliferation, invasion, angiogenesis, and immune regulation of glioma, regulates the TME of glioma, and promotes the survival of glioma stem cells, which may be related to the heterogeneity of glioma. This article reviews the progress of HSP47 in the development and progression of glioma, and discusses the significances of HSP47 in the proliferation, invasion, targeted therapy and immunotherapy of glioma.

The application of biological technology and the deepening of tumor research have effectively improved the level of tumor diagnosis, treatment and clinical outcome prediction. However, the specific mechanisms of tumorigenesis and development are still unclear, and tumor drug resistance has also become an urgent problem that needs to be solved to improve the clinical outcome of patients. Considerable studies have shown that the extrachromosomal DNA (ecDNA) can promote tumorigenesis, development and drug resistance. EcDNA is a looser, rounded form of DNA with unique genetic properties that carry specific genes and regulatory elements. This paper will discuss the biological characteristics, tumor-promoting mechanisms and drug resistance-facilitating of ecDNA.

Glioma is one of the most common primary intracranial tumors, accounting for 80% of malignant brain tumors. The conventional treatment of glioma is surgical resection followed by temozolomide chemotherapy, but the drug resistance will gradually appear that results in a poor prognosis of the patient. Berberine is an alkaloid extracted from Coptis Rhizoma, which has a wide range of pharmacological activities. It exerts its pharmacological effects on glioma such as inhibiting tumor growth through controlling different molecular and cellular pathways. In this article, the application of berberine in the treatment of glioma and the research progress of specific molecular mechanism are reviewed.

Glioma is one of the most common and invasive malignant tumors in the central nervous system. The Wnt-β-catenin signaling pathway is a classical Wnt pathway, which is involved in the occurrence and development of glioma and other tumors. Long non-coding RNA (LncRNA) is a functional RNA molecule without protein coding function, which plays a regulatory role in the occurrence and development of various tumors. Recent studies have shown that LncRNA and Wnt-β-catenin signaling pathways are jointly involved in glioma growth, invasion, migration and other processes, but the complex mechanism has not been thoroughly elaborated. In this paper, the influence of Wnt-β-catenin signaling pathway and its related LncRNA on glioma was reviewed, and the pathogenesis of glioma was deeply understood, so as to find a better way for the diagnosis and treatment of glioma.

Objective To detect the changes of cellular immune level in patients with different grades of glioma in perioperative period, and to investigate its relationship with the postoperative intracranial infection. Methods A total of 53 patients with glioma newly diagnosed by pathology who underwent the surgical treatment in the First Hospital of Shanxi Medical University from September 2017 to September 2018 were collected. According to the World Health Organization (WHO) classification criteria, the patients were divided into the low-grade group (grade Ⅰ-Ⅱ, 21 cases) and the high-grade group (grade Ⅲ-Ⅳ, 32 cases). The peripheral blood at the time of 1 day before the operation, 1 day and 7 days after the operation was drawn to detect the T lymphocyte subsets, and then the differences of cell immunity indexes from different grade gliomas were analyzed. The relationship between immune level and postoperative intracranial infection was analyzed. SPSS 22.0 statistical software was used to analyze the data. Results The levels of CD3+, CD4+, CD8+, CD4+CD25+Foxp3+and CD4+/CD8+in the high-grade group at the time of 1 day before the operation were (54.09±4.25)%, (31.93±3.08)%, (34.23±2.48)%, (9.66±1.47)%, 0.93±0.06, respectively; the levels at the time of 1 day after the operation were (48.84±3.69)%, (27.49±2.41)%, (34.99±2.96)%, (11.09±1.70)%, 0.84± 0.05, respectively; the levels at the time of 7 days after the operation were (59.45 ±3.47)%, (33.59 ±2.66)%, (31.99±1.97)%, (7.45±1.48)%, 1.05±0.07, respectively. The levels of CD3+, CD4+, CD8+, CD4+CD25+Foxp3+and CD4+/CD8+in the low-grade group at the time of 1 day before the operation were (62.37±6.57)%, (34.88± 4.43)%, (30.16 ±3.75)%, (6.30 ±1.29)%, 1.16 ±0.11, respectively; the levels at the time of 1 day after the operation were (55.44 ±7.25)%, (29.05 ±4.04)%, (31.66 ±3.13)%, (7.95 ±1.67)%, 0.92 ±0.11, respectively; the levels at the time of 7 days after the operation were (67.73 ±7.18)%, (35.55 ±4.95)%, (28.10 ±3.12)%, (5.50 ± 1.25)%, 1.27±0.12, respectively. The levels of CD3+, CD4+, CD4+/CD8+before and after the operation in the high-grade group were lower than those in the low-grade group (all P< 0.05), while the levels of CD8+and CD4+CD25+Foxp3+were higher than those in the low-grade group (all P<0.05). Compared with the levels at the time of 1 day before the operation, the levels of CD3+, CD4+, CD4+/CD8+at the time of 1 day after the operation of both groups were decreased, while the levels of CD8+and CD4+CD25+Foxp3+were increased (all P< 0.05). The levels of CD3+, CD4+and CD4+/CD8+ at the time of 7 days after the operation in the both groups were increased, while the levels of CD8+ and CD4+ CD25+ Foxp3+ were decreased (all P< 0.05). Among 53 patients, 8 cases had postoperative intracranial infection, and the infection rate was 15.09%. Age, duration of surgery, pathological stage, and intraoperative blood transfusion were the independent affecting factors of postoperative intracranial infection of cerebral glioma (OR= 1.513, P= 0.024; OR= 1.722, P<0.01; OR= 1.365, P= 0.001; OR= 1.262, P< 0.01). Conclusions The peripheral blood cellular immune level of glioma patients is related with the malignancy of glioma. The inhibition degree of the cellular immunity could be relieved after the resection of glioma. The detection of T lymphocyte subsets could be considered as an evaluating index for the malignancy and prognosis in patients with glioma. The clinical detection of cellular immune can play a positive role in predicting and preventing the postoperative intracranial infection in patients with glioma.
