Deleterious invasiveness of glioma cells into the normal brain tissue is endorsed by its inherent ability to regulate the receptor-mediated adhesive properties, extracellular matrix degradation and remodeling and elevated secretory ability of metalloproteinase (MMPs) such as MMP-2. By doing so, it will create an intercellular space for the invasion of glioma cells. Here, we reported that combination of gene therapy Buthus martensii Karsch (BmK) CT, a type of scorpion toxin peptide, with lithium chloride (LiCl), clinically used as mood stabilizer, could inhibit the migration and invasion of C6 glioma cells. The results showed that concomitant administration of LiCl and pEGFP-N1-BmK CT on glioma cells would hamper pro-MMP2 secretion and in the meantime, inhibited its proliferation in a synergistic manner. These results try to extrapolate the potential interplay between the combined treatment of LiCl and BmK CT with signaling pathways β-catenin, MMP, GSK-3 in C6 glioma cells. This strategy can stand for a novel approach designated for the development of a new method for glioma therapy.

Combination of lithium chloride and pEGFP-N1-BmK CT effectively decreases proliferation and migration of C6 glioma cells
