Strategies for the Molecular Classification of Medulloblastoma
Fifteen years ago, an omic study of medulloblastoma revealed the existence of four groups that are biologically and clinically different. Since then, various molecular classification methods have emerged, each with different diagnostic capabilities ...

Pediatric cerebellar pilomyxoid-spectrum astrocytomas
Object Pediatric cerebellar astrocytomas with pilomyxoid features include classic pilomyxoid astrocytomas (PMAs) and intermediate pilomyxoid tumors (IPTs). Since the original description of PMA in 1999, most reports in the literature have described PMAs

Organoids in pediatric cancer research
Organoid technology has revolutionized cancer research, yet its application in pediatric oncology remains limited. Recent advances have enabled the development of pediatric tumor organoids, offering new insights into disease biology, treatment response, and interactions with the tumor microenvironment.

Case Report: Frontoparietal Metastasis From a Primary Fallopian Tube Carcinoma
Background: Metastatic brain tumors typically arise from primary malignancies of the lung, kidney, breast, skin, and colorectum. Brain metastases originating from malignancies of the female genital tract are extremely rare. We present a case of fallopian

Somatic mutational landscape in von Hippel–Lindau familial hemangioblastoma
The causes of central nervous system (CNS) hemangioblastoma in Von Hippel–Lindau (vHL) disease are unclear. We used Whole Exome Sequencing (WES) on familial hemangioblastoma to investigate events that underlie tumor development. Our findings suggest that VHL loss creates a permissive environment for tumor formation, while additional alterations ...

Patterns for Differentiation of Posterior Fossa Neoplasms as Detected by Brain Scans
SummaryThe histological characteristics of neoplasms that occur in the posterior cranial fossa can often be predicted by a knowledge of the patient’s age and the specific anatomical location of the tumor.

Targeted therapy was evaluated in SHH medulloblastoma using neuroepithelial stem cell (NES) and tumor‐derived NES‐like (tNES) models in 2D monolayers and 3D spheroids. PI3K, AKT, and CDK4/6 inhibitors had minimal effects in NES but markedly reduced viability and growth and induced apoptosis in tNES cells, revealing distinct therapeutic vulnerabilities.
