Our manuscript reports the expression and prognostic role of orphan receptor GPR17 in glioma, the molecular mechanism of action of the novel ligand of GPR17, and provides evidence how the T0 agonist promotes glioblastoma cell death through modulation of the MAPK/ERK, PI3K–Akt, STAT, and NF-κB pathways. This evidence concerns the gene AKT1 and glioblastoma.
