Modeling brain and neural crest neoplasms with human pluripotent stem cells
Neuro-Oncology, 2023 Abstract Pluripotent stem cells offer unique avenues to study human-specific aspects of disease and are a highly versatile tool in cancer research. Oncogenic processes and developmental programs often share overlapping transcriptomic and epigenetic signatures, which can be reactivated in induced pluripotent stem cells. With the emergence

TALEN-mediated apc mutation in Xenopus tropicalis phenocopies familial adenomatous polyposis [PDF]
, 2015 Truncating mutations in the tumor suppressor gene adenomatous polyposis coli (APC) are the initiating step in the vast majority of sporadic colorectal cancers, and they underlie familial adenomatous polyposis (FAP) syndromes.

CONTENT OF STEM TUMOR CD133+ CELLS IN BRAIN NEOPLASMS OF DIFFERENT HISTOLOGICAL TYPE [PDF]
Experimental Oncology, 2017 Today, there are conflicting data on the content of cancer stem cells responsible for recurrence and resistance to chemotherapy in tumors of human brain. The aim of the study was to analyze the content of CD133+ cells in different brain tumors by immunofluorescence assay and immunohistochemical method.

Central Neurocytoma: A Review of Clinical Management and Histopathologic Features. [PDF]
, 2016 Central neurocytoma (CN) is a rare, benign brain tumor often located in the lateral ventricles. CN may cause obstructive hydrocephalus and manifest as signs of increased intracranial pressure. The goal of treatment for CN is a gross total resection (GTR),

Molecular and cellular pathogenesis of adamantinomatous craniopharyngioma. [PDF]
, 2015 Adamantinomatous craniopharyngiomas (ACPs) are the most common pituitary tumours in children. Although histologically benign, these are clinically aggressive tumours, difficult to manage and associated with poor quality of life for the patients.

Hypoxia helps glioma to fight therapy [PDF]
, 2009 Despite major improvements in the surgical management the prognosis for patients bearing malignant gliomas is still dismal. Malignant gliomas are notoriously resistant to treatment and the survival time of patients is between 3-8 years for low-grade and
