Generation of B-cell-based cellular vaccine for cancer in murine models
Summary: A B-cell-based cellular vaccine (BVax), produced from 4-1BBL+ B cells, can select tumor-specific B cells that, upon ex vivo culture, can generate tumor-specific antibodies and activate T cells.

Current Limitations of Intraoperative Ultrasound in Brain Tumor Surgery
While benefits of intraoperative ultrasound (IOUS) have been frequently described, data on IOUS limitations are relatively sparse. Suboptimal ultrasound imaging of some pathologies, various types of ultrasound artifacts, challenging patient positioning ...

Immune Microenvironment Landscape in CNS Tumors and Role in Responses to Immunotherapy
Despite the important evolution of immunotherapeutic agents, brain tumors remain, in general, refractory to immune therapeutics. Recent discoveries have revealed that the glioma microenvironment includes a wide variety of immune cells in various states ...

Surgical Management of Giant Prolactinomas: A Descriptive Study
Introduction. Giant prolactinoma (GP) is a rare pituitary lactotropic cell tumor larger than 4 cm in its widest dimension, and is less likely than a smaller prolactinoma to achieve prolactin normalization on dopamine agonist (DA) monotherapy.

Detection of Hypoxia in Human Brain Tumor Xenografts Using a Modified Comet Assay
We used the standard comet assay successfully to generate in vitro dose-response curves under oxic and hypoxic conditions. We then made mixtures of cells that had been irradiated with 3 and 9 Gy of X-rays to simulate two subpopulations in a tumor, but ...
