Abstract

Low efficiency of classic antitumor therapy initiates search for new ways of early diagnostics, prophylaxis and treatment of tumors. Specialists sometimes pay attention to extraordinary strategies based, for example, on the use of stem cells (SC) as specific biological agents aimed at destruction of malignant gliomas [1-3]. These technologies are the result of stem cells fundamental ability to migrate to brain tumors penetrating through blood-brain barrier [1].

Abbrevations: MiRs: MicroRNAs, SCs: Stem Cells, TNF-α: Tumor Necrosis Factor
