Most Common Childhood Brain Cancer Decoded, Hope for Customized TreatmentsThe genetic mutation responsible for the most common type of childhood brain cancer has been discovered. The study will advance cancer treatment to suit the needs and requirements of the patient....
University of Michigan scientists have found that a deficiency in a key tumor suppressor gene in the brain leads to the most common type of adult brain cancer. The study, conducted in mice that mimic human cancer, points the way to more effective future treatments and a way to screen for t...
Drugs that are effective against brain tumors are difficult to find, as many cancer drugs often can’t cross the blood-brain barrier to reach the brain. This limits the choice of possible treatments. Neuro-oncologists have thus been searching intensively for some time to find better drugs that...
The challenge aims to raise awareness of a rare brain cancer that affects young children. It was started by Aubregh Nicholas, an 11-year-old US kid. She was diagnosed with this rare brain cancer herself in September 2017, but has since raised almost $50000 to cover her medical expenses ...
Cancer as a Conversation Between Cells Hervey-Jumper attributes this to degradation of information-processing power in that region of the brain. He likens it to an orchestra where it’s the musicians playing in synchrony that makes the music work. ...
Without the ELP1 assembly and folding of proteins does not function properly any more. [Source: A. Moosmann] There may be a hereditary basis to 40% of cases of a subtype of the childhood brain cancer medulloblastoma, according to the results of a genetic study by international re...

They found that NPOs that provide the most funds were those that focus onbreast cancer, followed by leukemia, pediatric cancers, andlymphoma. In contrast, NPOs that focus on other cancers provided comparatively little funds. Gastrointestinal, genitourinary, gynecologic, and brain cancers receive charita...
encoded neural impulses to the CNS (transmission), and modulating neural impulses before delivering them to the brain (modulation). Nociception is independent of CNS activity [10]. In contrast, nociperception is the translation of neural impulses to conscious perception of pain in the brain [10]...
Researchers at the National Cancer Institute (NCI) have developed a comprehensive analysis of coding variants in nine of the most frequently studied human tumor cell lines in cancer research, according to a study published online in the journal Cancer Research. The NCI has decided to make th...
