GLYPHOSATE INCREASES CELL PROLIFERATION AND CAUSES DNA DAMAGE IN GLIOBLASTOMA CELL LINE

Glyphosate is the most used herbicide worldwide. It has been suggested as an inducer of neurotoxicity and, in 2015, the International Agency for Research on Cancer classified it as probably carcinogenic to humans. Glioblastoma is the most common malignant tumor of the central nervous system. It is a rapidly proliferating cancer, with greater potential for invasiveness compared to other tumors.
