  • Glioblastoma promotes recruitment and activation of microglia into a tumor-supportive phenotype.
  • Glioma stimulation reduces DNMT3A in microglia, leading to DNA demethylation and anti-tumoral gene expression.
  • Repression of Dnmt3a in microglia maintains anti-tumoral effects in vitro and in vivo.
  • Targeting Dnmt3a with antisense oligonucleotides reduces tumor growth in a glioblastoma mouse model.
  • Microglial DNMT3A is a potential therapeutic target for brain tumors involving microglia.
