Aim:
To evaluate the over expression of Glucose-regulated protein 78 kda (GRP78) in recurrent glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) and explore its chemoresatance.
Material And Methods:
Western blot analysis and real-time PCR were done to detect the expression of GRP78 in GBM tissues.
Results:
It was detected that GRP78 is up-expressed in GBM, especially in recurrent GBM. Radiotherapy (RT) plus temozolomide chemotherapy after primary tumor removal in relapsed patients induces C/EBP homologous protein (CHOP).
Conclusion:
The results mentioned above illustrate an essential function of GRP78 in the pathogenesis of GBM and suggest this receptor as the latest prognostic marker for further GRP78-targeted molecular cancer therapy and potential diagnosis of GMB.

Correlation
Two variables, for example, a and b, are said to be positively correlated if both variables move in the same direction. In other words, a positive correlation exists between two variables, a and b, if:
