Tumorsthat originate from brain cells or those that metastasizefrom other organs can affect brain function in two ways. The tumor can destroy brain cells so that their function is lost, or the tumor can take up space and cause pressure and swelling that affects brain cell function. This may ...
Recent findings have shed light on the molecular mechanisms underlying the development of malignant brain tumors [16,35]. Majority of primary glioblastomas exhibit amplification and activation of the epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR). The EGFR variant III (EGFRvIII) has been observed to promote...
Nearly all brain tumors develop following the progressive accumulation of genetic alterations of oncogenes and tumor suppressor genes (such as p53 and retinoblastoma protein). Furthermore, aberrations in the nuclear matrix often contribute to genomic instabilities and the development of cancer. We have ...
“apoptosis”—cell death—in cancer cell lines of the breast, prostate, ovary, head and neck, colon, and pancreas. In six studies in mice, the drug was effective against glioblastoma, leukemia, and breast and colon cancer. Based on these studies, predictions were made that iver...
I realized that I needed to educate myself quickly on every aspect of brain tumors. Using the skills I’d mastered as a diplomat in myForeign Service career, I got to work researching the disease, contacting pediatric brain tumor specialists across the country and learning how to communicate ...

Results : The orthotopic tumors from the glioblastomas and brain metastases all have the capacity to oxidize acetate and do so simultaneously with glucose oxidation. We have validated this finding in patients with glioblastoma and brain metastases. Conclusions Together the data demonstrate a strikingly ...
MicroRNA-21 high expression has been found in a variety of cancers including breast cancer, brain malignant tumors, glioblastomas, pancreatic, colorectal, liver, gastric, lung, skin, thyroid, ovarian, esophagus, prostate, cervical, and different lymphatic and hematopoietic cancers [250, 258–263]....
We found that the identified regions were mostly in agreement using the morphological modifications present in the CT scan.Glioblastomas (GBM) are the typical and aggressive as a type of major cancerous brain cyst when you look at the adult populace, and, despite modern-day treatments, patients...
