The genetic landscape of anaplastic astrocytoma

open access: yesOncoTarget, 2013
Anaplastic astrocytoma WHO grade III (A3) is a lethal brain tumor that often occurs in middle aged patients. Clinically, it is challenging to distinguish A3 from glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) WHO grade IV.

Hypoxic Cell Waves around Necrotic Cores in Glioblastoma: A Biomathematical Model and its Therapeutic Implications [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2012
Glioblastoma is a rapidly evolving high-grade astrocytoma that is distinguished pathologically from lower grade gliomas by the presence of necrosis and microvascular hiperplasia. Necrotic areas are typically surrounded by hypercellular regions known as "pseudopalisades" originated by local tumor vessel occlusions that induce collective cellular ...

Imaging‐Based Molecular Characterization of Adult‐Type Diffuse Glioma Using Diffusion and Perfusion MRI in Pre‐ and Post‐Treatment Stage Considering Spatial and Temporal Heterogeneity

open access: yesJournal of Magnetic Resonance Imaging, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Imaging‐based molecular characterization is important for identifying treatment targets in adult‐type diffuse gliomas. Purpose To assess isocitrate dehydrogenase (IDH) mutation and epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) amplification status in primary and recurrent gliomas using diffusion and perfusion MRI, addressing spatial and ...

Sulforhodamine 101 selectively labels human astrocytoma cells in an animal model of glioblastoma [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Sulforhodamine 101 (SR101) is a useful tool for immediate staining of astrocytes. We hypothesized that if the selectivity of SR101was maintained in astrocytoma cells, it could prove useful for glioma research.

Two common nonsynonymous paraoxonase 1 (PON1) gene polymorphisms and brain astrocytoma and meningioma

open access: yesBMC Neurology, 2010
Background Human serum paraoxonase 1 (PON1) plays a major role in the metabolism of several organophosphorus compounds. The enzyme is encoded by the polymorphic gene PON1, located on chromosome 7q21.3. Aiming to identify genetic variations related to the

Intraventricular dissemination of the pilocytic astrocytomas in an adult

open access: yesRomanian Neurosurgery, 2020
Pilocytic astrocytoma (PA) is a subset of gliomas characterized by a benign course with an excellent prognosis and rarely metastasizing or spreading along the neuraxis. We report a case of a 56-year female with intraventricular dissemination of pilocytic

Optimized Long‐TE 1H sLASER MR Spectroscopic Imaging at 3T for Separate Quantification of Glutamate and Glutamine in Glioma

open access: yesJournal of Magnetic Resonance Imaging, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Glutamate and glutamine are critical metabolites in gliomas, each serving distinct roles in tumor biology. Separate quantification of these metabolites using in vivo MR spectroscopy (MRS) at clinical field strengths (≤ 3T) is hindered by their molecular similarity, resulting in overlapping, hence indistinguishable, spectral peaks ...

Modeling brain dynamics in brain tumor patients using the virtual brain [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Presurgical planning for brain tumor resection aims at delineating eloquent tissue in the vicinity of the lesion to spare during surgery. To this end, noninvasive neuroimaging techniques such as functional MRI and diffusion-weighted imaging fiber ...

Pathological and molecular advances in pediatric low-grade astrocytoma.

open access: yesAnnual Review of Pathology, 2013
Pediatric low-grade astrocytomas are the most common brain tumors in children. They can have similar microscopic and clinical features, making accurate diagnosis difficult.

Brain Tumor Characterization Using Multiple MR Parameters From Multi‐Contrast EPI With Keyhole (GE‐SE EPIK) Including Oxygen Extraction Fraction: A Comparison to O‐(2‐[18F]Fluoroethyl)‐L‐Tyrosine (FET) Positron Emission Tomography

open access: yesJournal of Magnetic Resonance Imaging, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Tumor characterization and treatment efficacy are associated with tissue hypoxia. MR‐derived oxygen extraction fraction (OEF) may offer valuable tumor insights but depends on multiple measurement parameters, often requiring multiple sequence acquisitions.
