I think that glioblastoma is terribly aggressive, meaning that cancer research is going to focus on this more than a number of other factors. The survival rate is not terribly great, as you could probably imagine. There's a need for more details but what exactly can be deemed great points in terms of research? I think that the amount of stories one can come about can be surprising, especially a particular report that talked about using cold plasma in order to work against cancer cells.
In the realm of cancer research, it seems like glioma is cured in a specific way. First off, an MRT scan is done in order to see if there is a tumor; that's when it is removed through a surgical procedure. While it can be removed, it is very possible that patients will go through a point of relapse. Companies like Voices Against Brain Cancer can also tell you that surgery done in copious amounts can potentially do permanent harm to the brain.
According to an article on Science Daily, physicists from the Max Planck Institute for Extraterrestrial Physics demonstrated the impact that cold atmospheric plasma can have along with standard chemotherapy. The results came back and I would like to think that they can produce tangible outcomes in the future. Utilizing this tandem, it seemed like the proliferation of glioblastoma cells had been arrested and perhaps become even more sensitive to treatment. It seems like this could help build an even greater number of methods in terms of therapy.
Cold atmospheric plasma actually has had a number of human uses in the past. The article said that it has the potential to help those with cases of fungi or various kinds of viruses. Not only does the plasma have the ability to render such problems inactive but they are able to do so while bringing as little harm to the body as possible. Who's to say that it can't potentially help in the way of cancer prevention or even as a cure for the ailment?
Anyone who understands even the most modicum amount of know-how in cancer research will definitely be able to look into this story with interest. After all, how many people would have been able to connect the idea of plasma to cells found within the brain? It was a surprise to me but I also looked at it as something of a learning experience. I think that there is more to uncover, though, which speaks volumes about the level of research that has been done in the past and will be done as time goes on.
