MicroRNA-608 and microRNA-34a regulate chordoma malignancy by targeting EGFR, Bcl-xL and MET. [PDF]
Chordomas are rare malignant tumors that originate from the notochord remnants and occur in the skull base, spine and sacrum. Due to a very limited understanding of the molecular pathogenesis of chordoma, there are no adjuvant and molecular therapies ...

Recurrent Metastatic Chordoma to the Liver: A Case Report and Review of the Literature
Chordoma is a rare malignant neoplasm derived from notochordal tissue that primarily affects the axial skeleton. Almost 40% of patients have non-cranial chordoma metastases.

Paediatric chordomas are rare malignant tumours arising from primitive notochordal remnants with a high rate of recurrence. Only 5 % of them occur in the first two decades such less than 300 paediatric cases have been reported so far in the literature. In children, the average age at diagnosis is 10 years with a male-to-female ratio closed to 1. On the

XIST sponges miR-320d to promote chordoma progression by regulating ARF6
Background: Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) have been demonstrated to play important roles in various tumors, including chordoma. The purpose of this study was to investigate the role and mechanism of lncRNA X-inactive specific transcript (XIST) in ...

Oronasopharyngeal chordomas [PDF]
Chordomas are rare tumors derived from notochordal remnants. The authors report on a series of three cases of primary familial oronasopharyngeal chordomas treated at our institution.A retrospective chart review was completed of the three cases of primary familial oronasopharyngeal chordoma treated at the University of Utah.All three patients (100 ...

Targeting EZH2-mediated methylation of H3K27 inhibits proliferation and migration of Synovial Sarcoma in vitro. [PDF]
Synovial sarcoma is an aggressive soft tissue sarcoma genetically defined by the fusion oncogene SS18-SSX. It is hypothesized that either SS18-SSX disrupts SWI/SNF complex inhibition of the polycomb complex 2 (PRC2) methyltransferase Enhancer of Zeste ...

Establishment and genomic characterization of the new chordoma cell line Chor-IN-1
Chordomas are rare, slowly growing tumors with high medical need, arising in the axial skeleton from notochord remnants. The transcription factor “brachyury” represents a distinctive molecular marker and a key oncogenic driver of chordomas.

ABSTRACT Purpose To evaluate quantitative susceptibility mapping (QSM) beyond the brain through realistic simulations and to explore preliminary evidence that may be indicative of hypoxia in skull base chordomas (SBC). Methods Each step of the QSM pipeline was optimized within an in silico framework consisting of (i) phase unwrapping, (ii) background ...
