Application of the antitussive agents oxelaidin and butamirate as anti-glioma agents
Abstract Glioblastoma (GBM) is an aggressive brain tumor with a strong tendency of relapse and resistance to chemotherapy, but we currently lack non-toxic agents that effectively treat GBM. In this study, high-throughput screening of FDA-approved drugs was performed to identify safe and effective mo...

Abstract Glioblastoma (GBM) is an aggressive brain tumor with a strong tendency of relapse and resistance to chemotherapy, but we currently lack non-toxic agents that effectively treat GBM. In this study, high-throughput screening of FDA-approved drugs was performed to identify safe and effective molecules and test their effect on GBM cell lines, LN229, U87 and T98G. Cough suppressants, oxelaidin and butamirate inhibited GBM growth. A Ras family GTPase, Ras-related associated with diabetes (RRAD), contributes to activation of STAT3, which is essential for survival and growth of many cancer types.
