  1. 1. Of Mice and MYC : Modelling Medulloblastoma

    Författare :Oliver Mainwaring; Fredrik J. Swartling; Charles Eberhart; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Medulloblastoma; MYC; Group 3; Cdkn2a; ARF; HSP90; Chromosome 17q; Medicinsk vetenskap; Medical Science; Oncology; Onkologi;

    Sammanfattning : Brain tumours are the leading cause of cancer-related paediatric deaths, with medulloblastoma (MB) being the most common malignant paediatric brain tumour. MB is stratified into four major subgroups – WNT, SHH, Group 3, and Group 4, nomenclature defined by key pathways and drivers involved within each subgroup. LÄS MER

  2. 2. MYC-driven Medulloblastoma : New Targeted Therapies and Mechanisms of Recurrence

    Författare :Anna Borgenvik; Fredrik J. Swartling; Lars-Gunnar Larsson; Sonja Hutter; Pratiti (Mimi) Bandopadhayay; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Medulloblastoma; Pediatric cancer; Recurrence; MYC; MYCN; SOX9; Treatment; Bet bromodomains; Cyclin-dependent kinases; Oncology; Onkologi; Medicinsk vetenskap; Medical Science;

    Sammanfattning : Medulloblastoma is the most common malignant brain tumor of childhood. It arises in the posterior fossa but presents with distinct histological and molecular features. Hence, medulloblastoma is divided into four molecular subgroups, WNT, SHH, Group 3, and Group 4. LÄS MER

  3. 3. The Role of SOX9 in Medulloblastoma

    Författare :Vasil Savov; Fredrik Swartling; Ulrich Schüller; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Medulloblastoma; SOX9; MYCN; cancer development; recurrence; regulation; tumor metastasis; migration; Medical Science; Medicinsk vetenskap;

    Sammanfattning : Medulloblastoma (MB) is the most common malignant pediatric brain tumor. Overall survival is about 70% and in cases where current treatment fails, the disease recurs and most often is fatal. At the molecular level, MB can be divided into four defined subgroups: WNT, SHH, Group 3 and Group 4. LÄS MER

  4. 4. Mechanisms of Medulloblastoma Dissemination and Novel Targeted Therapies

    Författare :Sara Bolin; Fredrik Swartling; Martine F. Roussel; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Medulloblastoma; Recurrence; MYC; SOX9; FBW7; Treatment; BET bromodomains; Cyclin-dependent kinases; Oncology; Onkologi;

    Sammanfattning : Medulloblastomas are the most frequent malignant childhood brain tumors, arising in the posterior fossa of children. The overall 5-year survival is 70%, although children often suffer severe long-term side effects from standard medical care. LÄS MER

  5. 5. From Genes to Therapy : Modeling and Novel Therapeutic Strategies for Brain Tumors

    Författare :Matko Čančer; Fredrik Swartling; Lene Uhrbom; Suzanne J. Baker; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Medulloblastoma; Glioblastoma; MYCN; PDGF; Cancer Therapy; BET bromodomains; Temozolomide; Medicinsk vetenskap; Medical Science; Oncology; Onkologi;

    Sammanfattning : Medulloblastoma is the most common malignant pediatric brain tumor and is molecularly divided into four subgroups – WNT, SHH, Group 3 and Group 4. Two thirds of medulloblastoma patients survive, but survivors often suffer from severe, lifelong side-effects. The MYCN oncogene is deregulated in many medulloblastoma patients. LÄS MER
