Radiotherapy-induced tumor death remains critical in the successful first-line management of glioblastoma, whereas resistance to radiation serves as a major factor in disease progression. Mesenchymal shift has been identified as a driver in GBM recurrence, with gene expression associated with enhanced repair of macromolecular damage caused by radiation.
