Journal ArticleDOI

Brain tumour cells interconnect to a functional and resistant network

TL;DR: It is shown that many tumour cells in astrocytomas extend ultra-long membrane protrusions, and use these distinct tumour microtubes as routes for brain invasion, proliferation, and to interconnect over long distances, which develops functional multicellular network structures.
Journal ArticleDOI

Tweety-Homolog 1 Drives Brain Colonization of Gliomas.

TL;DR: Targeting of Ttyh1 effectively inhibited the formation of invasive TMs and glioma growth, but increased network formation by intercellular TMs, suggesting a functional and molecular heterogeneity of the recently discovered TMs with potential implications for future TM-targeting strategies.
Journal ArticleDOI

Impact of Blood-Brain Barrier Integrity on Tumor Growth and Therapy Response in Brain Metastases.

TL;DR: This study provides the first direct evidence that nonpermeable brain micro- and macrometastases can effectively be targeted by a drug designed to cross the BBB, and is a promising agent in preventing or treating brain metastases in patients.
