Journal ArticleDOI

A Perivascular Niche for Brain Tumor Stem Cells

TL;DR: This work shows that endothelial cells interact closely with self-renewing brain tumor cells and secrete factors that maintain these cells in a stem cell-like state, and proposes that brain CSCs are maintained within vascular niches that are important targets for therapeutic approaches.
Journal ArticleDOI

Radial glia cells are candidate stem cells of ependymoma

TL;DR: It is reported that histologically identical, but genetically distinct, ependymomas exhibit patterns of gene expression that recapitulate those of radial glia cells in the corresponding region of the central nervous system.
Journal ArticleDOI

Dietary modulation of the microbiome affects autoinflammatory disease

TL;DR: Diet-associated changes in the intestinal microbiome is revealed as a crucial factor regulating inflammasome- and caspase-8-mediated maturation of IL-1β and osteomyelitis in Pstpip2cmo mice.
Journal Article

ERBB2 up-regulates S100A4 and several other prometastatic genes in medulloblastoma.

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that ER BB2 overexpression increases the migration of medulloblastoma cells across basement membranes in vitro and an ERBB2 driven prometastatic pathway that may provide a novel target for therapeutic intervention in metastatic medullOBlastoma is identified.
