Objective To investigate the effects of JSH⁃23 combined with Stattic targeting inhibition of nuclear factor⁃κB (NF⁃κB) and signal transducer and activator of transcription factor 3 (STAT3) signaling pathways on the proliferation and migration ability of mesenchymal glioblastoma cells and the expressions of NF⁃κB pathway and STAT3 pathway⁃related proteins. Methods The mRNA⁃seq results of 529 glioma patients were downloaded from The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA). Bioinformatics was used to analyze the correlation between RelA/P65 and STAT3 and the markers of mesenchymal glioblastoma, as well as the expression of NF⁃κB pathway and STAT3 pathway⁃related proteins in mesenchymal, classical and proneural glioblastoma. The human glioma cell lines U87MG and U251MG in vitro were treated with JSH⁃23, Stattic, JSH⁃23 and Stattic, respectively. The half⁃inhibitory concentration (IC50) of the two drugs was calculated by cytotoxicity assay, and the synergistic effect of the two drugs was observed by drug synergistic assay. CCK
