A systematic computational analysis of the endosomal recycling pathway in glioblastoma.

ABSTRACT: Glioblastoma (GBM) is the most common and aggressive brain cancer in adults. The standard treatment is brutal and has changed little in 20 years, and more than 85% of patients will die within two years of their diagnosis. There is thus an urgent need to identify new drug targets and develop novel therapeutic strategies to increase survival and improve quality of life. Using publicly available genomics, transcriptomics and proteomics datasets, we compared the expression of endosomal recycling pathway regulators in non-tumour brain tissue with their expression in GBM. We found that key regulators of this pathway are dysregulated in GBM and their expression levels can be linked to survival outcomes. Further analysis of the differentially expressed endosomal recycling regulators allowed us to
