摘要
The most exciting recently developed therapeutic approaches for glioma and other types of nervous system tumors involve combinations of immune-therapy and neural stem cells. But we must bear in mind that the human brain differs greatly from the mouse brain, and that approaches that are effective in animal models may not always be safe for humans.
