Background MicroRNAs (miRNAs) have been shown to contribute to the initiation and progression of human cancer, including retinoblastoma. However, expression levels and potential roles of miRNAs in retinoblastoma remain largely unknown.

Retinoblastoma in Late Childhood
Retinoblastoma, the commonest intra-ocular tumor of childhood, is rare after the age of 5 years. We report a case of retinoblastoma in a 10 year-old boy, who presented with a fungating proptosed tender mass involving the entire left eye and the orbit.

The enucleation rate for retinoblastoma has dropped from over 95% to under 10% in the past 10 years as a result of improvements in therapy. This reduces access to tumor tissue for molecular profiling, especially in unilateral retinoblastoma, and hinders ...

Analysis of MDM2 and MDM4 single nucleotide polymorphisms, mRNA splicing and protein expression in retinoblastoma. [PDF]
Retinoblastoma is a childhood cancer of the developing retina that begins in utero and is diagnosed in the first years of life. Biallelic RB1 gene inactivation is the initiating genetic lesion in retinoblastoma.

A rare case of adult onset retinoblastoma
Retinoblastoma usually manifests before five years of age. Retinoblastoma in an adult is extremely rare. Twenty-three cases of retinoblastoma in adults 20 years or older have been reported in world literature.

Retinoblastoma Tumor Suppressor Protein Roles in Epigenetic Regulation
Simple Summary Loss of function of the retinoblastoma gene (RB1) is the rate-limiting step in the initiation of both the hereditary and sporadic forms of retinoblastoma tumor.

Background: Retinoblastoma, although rare, is the most frequently occurring primary intraocular tumor of childhood. While a cure is often achieved where appropriate treatment is instituted early in the disease, late presentation often leads to ...

Expression of MMP-14 and CD44 associated with proliferation of retinoblastoma cells
Retinoblastoma is a the most common primary intraocular malignant tumor in childhood. The eexpressions of CD44 and MMP-14 and Their role in proliferation and migration cells appear crucial for retinoblastoma invasion.

Nitric oxide suppression by secreted frizzled-related protein 2 drives retinoblastoma
Summary: Retinoblastoma is a cancer of the infant retina primarily driven by loss of the Rb tumor suppressor gene, which is undruggable. Here, we report an autocrine signaling, mediated by secreted frizzled-related protein 2 (SFRP2), which suppresses ...
