Subgroup-specific structural variation across 1,000 medulloblastoma genomes

Paul A. Northcott, +139 more
- 02 Aug 2012 - 
TL;DR: Somatic copy number aberrations (SCNAs) in 1,087 unique medulloblastomas are reported, including recurrent events targeting TGF-β signalling in Group 3, and NF-κB signalling in Groups 4, which suggest future avenues for rational, targeted therapy.
Journal ArticleDOI

Intertumoral Heterogeneity within Medulloblastoma Subgroups

Florence M.G. Cavalli, +101 more
- 12 Jun 2017 - 
TL;DR: Similarity network fusion (SNF) applied to genome-wide DNA methylation and gene expression data across 763 primary samples identifies very homogeneous clusters of patients, supporting the presence of medulloblastoma subtypes.
Journal ArticleDOI

A small-molecule antagonist of CXCR4 inhibits intracranial growth of primary brain tumors

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that activation of the Gi protein-coupled receptor CXCR4 is critical for the growth of both malignant neuronal and glial tumors and provided a scientific rationale for clinical evaluation of AMD 3100 in treating both adults and children with malignant brain tumors.
Journal ArticleDOI

Receptor-mediated transcytosis of transferrin across the blood-brain barrier.

TL;DR: The perfusion of rat brain with 125I‐transferrin resulted in a receptor‐mediated uptake of transferrin into the endothelium of the blood‐brain barrier followed by its detecation in the brain, suggesting that the brain may derive its iron through the transcytosis of iron‐loaded transferrin across the brain microvasculature.
