Abstract

This paper explores the cell proliferation in different cell lines of Glioblastoma Multiforme (GBM). For this, two different cultures were grown: T98G and U118. A spectrometer was used to analyze what compounds were present in the cell culture. The cell proliferation of the different lines was counted with a hemocytometer. The objective of the study was to determine the correlation between cell proliferation and the compounds present in the GBM cell lines. The information found in this study will help determine why some cases of Glioblastoma Multiforme are more aggressive than others. Ultimately, this knowledge can inform future studies on how to more effectively treat Glioblastoma Multiforme.
