Immunocompetent murine models for the study of glioblastoma immunotherapy. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Glioblastoma remains a lethal diagnosis with a 5-year survival rate of less than 10%. (NEJM 352:987-96, 2005) Although immunotherapy-based approaches are capable of inducing detectable immune responses against tumor-specific antigens, improvements in ...

A rare, pediatric, fourth-ventricular, anaplastic astrocytoma

open access: yesRadiology Case Reports, 2021
Anaplastic astrocytoma, a diffusely infiltrating, malignant, astrocytic, primary brain tumor, is most commonly observed between 30 and 50 years of age. Anaplastic astrocytomas are now classified as WHO grade III lesions, with imaging characteristics and ...

Morphological analysis of CDC2 and glycogen synthase kinase 3β phosphorylation as markers of g2 → m transition in glioma. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
G2 → M transition is a strategic target for glioma chemotherapy. Key players in G2 → M transition include CDC2 and glycogen synthase kinase 3β (GSK3β), which are highly regulated by posttranslational phosphorylation.

Transcriptome analysis reveals distinct gene expression profiles in astrocytoma grades II-IV

open access: yesBiomedical Papers, 2017
Background: Astrocytoma is the most prevalent form of primary brain cancer categorized into four histological grades by the World Health Organization. Investigation into individual grades of astrocytoma by previous studies has provided some insight into ...

Risk factor analysis and nomogram establishment and verification of brain astrocytoma patients based on SEER database

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2023
Astrocytoma is a common brain tumor that can occur in any part of the central nervous system. This tumor is extremely harmful to patients, and there are no clear studies on the risk factors for astrocytoma of the brain.

Concurrent MEK targeted therapy prevents MAPK pathway reactivation during BRAFV600E targeted inhibition in a novel syngeneic murine glioma model. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Inhibitors of BRAFV600E kinase are currently under investigations in preclinical and clinical studies involving BRAFV600E glioma. Studies demonstrated clinical response to such individualized therapy in the majority of patients whereas in some patients ...

Methylation profiles of thirty four promoter-CpG islands and concordant methylation behaviours of sixteen genes that may contribute to carcinogenesis of astrocytoma

open access: yesBMC Cancer, 2004
Background Astrocytoma is a common aggressive intracranial tumor and presents a formidable challenge in the clinic. Association of altered DNA methylation patterns of the promoter CpG islands with the expression profile of cancer-related genes, has been ...

Pilocytic astrocytoma [PDF]

open access: yesBMJ Case Reports, 2016
Pilocytic astrocytoma (PA) is a benign tumour of childhood, often located in deep midline structures such as the brainstem and the cerebellum.1 Gross surgical resection is curative in the majority of patients.2 We report a case of recurrent PA diagnosed after an acute confusional state and rightsided spastic hemiparesis in a previously healthy 38-year ...
