Grade 3– Malignant glioma:includes anaplastic astrocytoma, anaplastic oligodendroglioma, and anaplastic mixed oligoastrocytoma. Grade 3 tumors grow faster and more aggressively than grade 2. They invade nearby brain tissue with tentacle-like projections, making complete surgical removal more difficult. Pati...
Genes affected in astrocytomas WHO grade II include: IDH1/2 (isocitrate dehydrogenase 1, isocitrate dehydrogenase 2) with an IDH1 point mutation, resulting in a transition of arginine to histidine in the enzyme's catalytic site at amino acid position 132 (R132H); TP53 (tumor suppressor gene, ...
低度神經膠質瘤( low grade )生長緩慢,被分類為I或II等級。高度(惡性)( high grade )神經膠質瘤生長迅速,被分配III (anaplastic)或IV (glioblastoma multiforme)(多形惡性神經膠質瘤)(GBM)。等級III和IV的神經膠質瘤患者占腦瘤在40-49歲的40%,和在60歲以上患者的60%。在多數統計臨床,等級III腫瘤包括大約10%...
The MEN1 gene product interacts with glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP) in the brain. We here demonstrate bi-allelic MEN1 inactivation in a grade II astrocytoma in an individual carrying a heterozygous MEN1 germ line deletion mutation (788del6). This tumor represents a novel, non-endocrine...
After 4 to 7 cycles of chemotherapy, 2 patients had partial response and one minor response on brain MRI. All of them were seizure-free. Progression free survival was not reached at 5 Years. Up-front chemotherapy for low-grade astrocytomas may be useful and has to be prospectively evaluated...

Diffuse astrocytoma (DA; WHO grade II) is a low-grade, primary brain neoplasm with high potential of recurrence as higher grade malignant form. We have analyzed differentially expressed membrane proteins from these tumors, using high-resolution mass spectrometry. A total of 2803 proteins were identi...
