Malignant gliomas remain incurable despite modem multimodality treatments. Tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-related apoptosis-inducing ligand (TRAIL), also known as Apo2L, a member of the TNF family, preferentially induces apoptosis in human tumor cells through its cognate death receptors DR4 or DR5, suggesting that it may serve as a potential therapeutic agent for intractable malignant gliomas. Here, the authors show that genotoxic ionizing radiation synergistically enhances TRAIL-induced cell death in human glioma cells expressing DR5.
