Anti-tumor activity of the beta-adrenergic receptor antagonist propranolol in neuroblastoma
Neuroblastoma (NB) is a pediatric tumor of the sympathetic nervous system, which is often associated with elevated catecholamines. More than half of patients with metastatic NB relapse and survival is extremely poor with current therapies. In a high-throughput screen of FDA-approved drugs we identif...
