Transitioning from molecular methods to therapeutic methods: An in‑depth analysis of glioblastoma (Review).

Glioblastoma (GBM) is the most aggressive primary brain tumour, characterised by high heterogeneity, aggressiveness and resistance to conventional therapies, leading to poor prognosis for patients. In recent years, with the rapid development of molecular biology and genomics technologies, significant progress has been made in understanding the molecular mechanisms of GBM. This has revealed a complex molecular network involving aberrant key signalling pathways, epigenetic alterations, interactions in the tumour microenvironment and regulation of non‑coding RNAs. Based on these molecular features, novel therapeutic strategies such as targeted therapies, immunotherapy and gene therapy are rapidly evolving and hold promise for improving the outcome of GBM. This review systematically summarises the advances in molecular mechanisms and therapeutic approaches for GBM. It aims to provide new perspectives for the precise diagnosis and personalised treatment of GBM, and to ultimately improve the prognosis of patients.
