Characterizing and targeting glioblastoma neuron-tumor networks with retrograde tracing
Rapid integration of glioblastoma into neuronal circuits promotes glioblastoma invasion and growth, as shown by rabies-based retrograde tracing. Targeting of neuron-tumor networks with pharmacological or rabies-mediated disconnection offers therapeutic potential.
