摘要：

Deregulated p21-Ras function, as a result of mutation, overexpression or growth factor-induced overactivation, contributes to at least 30% of human cancer. This article reviews the potential role of the p21-Ras family of GTPases in the regulation of growth of high-grade gliomas and describes how targeting this oncoprotein clinically may provide a novel strategy to counteract glioma proliferation. The application of strategies directed at selectively opposing the deregulated signal transduction pathway of high-grade gliomas may be of potential therapeutic benefit and may offer a whole new arsenal of antineoplastic agents to be included in the multimodal treatment of these challenging neoplasms.
