Regulation of sonic hedgehog-GLI1 downstream target genes PTCH1, Cyclin D2, Plakoglobin, PAX6 and NKX2.2 and their epigenetic status in medulloblastoma and astrocytoma [PDF]
Background The Sonic hedgehog (Shh) signaling pathway is critical for cell growth and differentiation. Impairment of this pathway can result in both birth defects and cancer.

It is obvious that the past decade has witnessed considerable progress in the management of children with medulloblastoma. Better surgical technique has led to more aggressive surgery with less morbidity. The use of staging has led to reduction in radiation therapy doses in some patients and will, it is hoped, lead to better neuropsychological outcome.

Metastatic Medulloblastoma [PDF]
SUMMARY:The incidence of metastatic medulloblastoma is probably greater than the thirteen documented patients. Case reports of metastatic medulloblastoma must be carefully analysed. We have added two cases which conform to Weiss’ criteria for metastatic disease. The direction and factors influencing spread have been discussed.

Role of protein arginine methyltransferase 5 in group 3 (MYC-driven) Medulloblastoma
Background MYC amplification or overexpression is common in Group 3 medulloblastoma and is associated with the worst prognosis. Recently, protein arginine methyl transferase (PRMT) 5 expression has been closely associated with aberrant MYC function in ...

Delta-catenin attenuates medulloblastoma cell invasion by targeting EMT pathway
Background: Medulloblastoma is the most common pediatric malignant tumor in central nervous system. Although its prognosis has been improved enormously by the combination treatments with surgery, radiotherapy, and chemotherapy, it still could progress ...

Molecular subgroups of adult medulloblastoma: a long-term single-institution study [PDF]
Background Recent transcriptomic approaches have demonstrated that there are at least 4 distinct subgroups in medulloblastoma (MB); however, survival studies of molecular subgroups in adult MB have been inconclusive because of small sample sizes. The aim

Neurodegeneration-associated protein VAPB regulates proliferation in medulloblastoma
VAMP (Vesicle-associated membrane protein)-associated protein B and C (VAPB) has been widely studied in neurodegenerative diseases such as ALS, but little is known about its role in cancer.
