Mutation and Cancer: Statistical Study of Retinoblastoma
Based upon observations on 48 cases of retinoblastoma and published reports, the hypothesis is developed that retinoblastoma is a cancer caused by two mutational events.

CD171- and GD2-specific CAR-T cells potently target retinoblastoma cells in preclinical in vitro testing [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Chimeric antigen receptor (CAR)-based T cell therapy is in early clinical trials to target the neuroectodermal tumor, neuroblastoma. No preclinical or clinical efficacy data are available for retinoblastoma to date.

Non-coding and Coding Transcriptional Profiles Are Significantly Altered in Pediatric Retinoblastoma Tumors. [PDF]
Retinoblastoma is a rare pediatric tumor of the retina, caused by the homozygous loss of the Retinoblastoma 1 (RB1) tumor suppressor gene. Previous microarray studies have identified changes in the expression profiles of coding genes; however, our ...

Retinoblastoma, the visible CNS tumor: A review [PDF]
The pediatric ocular cancer retinoblastoma is the only central nervous system (CNS) tumor readily observed without specialized equipment: it can be seen by, and in, the naked eye. This accessibility enables unique imaging modalities. Here, we review this

Update on pathology of retinoblastoma [PDF]
Retinoblastoma is caused by mutational inactivation of both alleles of the RB1 gene, which maps to chromosome 13q14 and encodes retinoblastoma protein that acts as a tumor suppressor.

The management of retinoblastoma
Retinoblastoma (Rb) is the most common primary intraocular malignancy of childhood, but an uncommon paediatric cancer, with a constant incidence worldwide of 1:15,000-1:20,000 live births. Despite its rarity, Rb has served as a cornerstone in the field of oncology in many of the aspects that comprise cancer management, including classification schemes,

Differentiating MYCN-amplified RB1 wild-type retinoblastoma from biallelic RB1 mutant retinoblastoma using MR-based radiomics: a retrospective multicenter case–control study [PDF]
MYCN-amplified RB1 wild-type (MYCN amp RB1 +/+) retinoblastoma is a rare and aggressive subtype, often resistant to standard therapies. Identifying unique MRI features is crucial for diagnosing this subtype, as biopsy is not recommended. This study aimed

From 7% to 10% of all retinoblastomas and from 44% to 71% of familial retinoblastomas in developed countries are diagnosed in the neonatal period, usually through pre- or post-natal screening prompted by a positive family history and sometimes ...

The retinoblastoma protein associates with the protein phosphatase type 1 catalytic subunit. [PDF]
The retinoblastoma protein (p110RB) interacts with many cellular proteins in complexes potentially important for its growth-suppressing function. We have developed and used an improved version of the yeast two-hybrid system to isolate human cDNAs ...

Retinoblastoma is a radiosensitive malignancy of neuroblastic origin that primarily affects young children. Its relatively low incidence belies its potential importance in the understanding of tumor biology in general. A case is made for referral of all retinoblastoma patients to centers with retinoblastoma protocols.
