Alexander disease: An important mimicker of focal brainstem glioma.
13 Dec 2009 
We report the case of a 6-year-old male who was referred to a tertiary oncology center with a focal brainstem lesion which was presumed to be neoplastic. Due to the symmetric nature of the lesion on magnetic resonance imaging, the evaluation was ...

PARP1 expression in pediatric central nervous system tumors.
13 Dec 2009 BACKGROUND: Despite advances in therapy, outcome in many high-grade pediatric central nervous system (CNS) tumors remains poor. The focus of neuro-oncology research has thus turned towards identifying novel therapeutic targets. Poly(ADP-ribose) ...

Ceramide metabolism determines glioma cell resistance to chemotherapy.
29 Nov 2009 Tumor cell resistance to chemotherapy constitutes a major problem in the treatment of malignant tumors. We here investigated the role of ceramide metabolism for the resistance of glioma cells to treatment with the chemotherapeutic drug, gemcitabine. ...

Tubulin targets in the pathobiology and therapy of glioblastoma multiforme. II. gamma-Tubulin.
29 Nov 2009 Glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) is the most common and deadliest form of primary brain cancer in adults. Despite advances in molecular biology and genetics of cancer there is no currently available treatment for these tumors. Aberrant patterns of ...

Bevacizumab as therapy for radiation necrosis in four children with pontine gliomas.
13 Nov 2009 PURPOSE: Diffuse pontine gliomas are a pediatric brain tumor that is fatal in nearly all patients. Given the poor prognosis for patients with this tumor, their quality of life is very important. Radiation therapy provides some palliation, but can ...

Radiopathological characteristics of cerebellar malignant glioma in adults.
25 Oct 2009 Our aim was to extract the radiopathological features of cerebellar malignant glioma in adults from the four cases we encountered. All four cases (two men and two women, aged 52-80 years; mean age, 67 years) had a floating sensation or vertigo at ...

29 Sep 2009 Nearly 10% of human gliomas are oligodendrogliomas. Deletion of chromosome arm 19q, often in conjunction with deletion of 1p, has been observed in 65-80% of these tumors. This has suggested the presence of a tumor suppressor gene located on the 19q ...

29 Sep 2009 The stem cell marker CD133/prominin-1, is a pentaspan membrane glycoprotein, which has also been identified as a cancer stem cell (CSC) marker in several solid tumor types, including those of the prostate, liver, colon and brain. The function of ...

6-year-old girl with hydrocephalus.
29 Sep 2009 With rare exceptions, pediatric tectal gliomas have been generally reported as low-grade tumors with relatively good prognosis. The patients are usually treated conservatively to manage the signs and symptoms of obstructive hydrocephalus. We report ...

Dendritic cell therapy of high-grade gliomas.
29 Sep 2009 The prognosis of patients with malignant glioma is poor in spite of multimodal treatment approaches consisting of neurosurgery, radiochemotherapy and maintenance chemotherapy. Among innovative treatment strategies like targeted therapy, ...
