Medulloblastoma (MB) is the most frequent malignant brain neoplasm in children and adolescents. MB is now considered a genetically heterogeneous disease, and it is subdivided into four molecular subgroups (WNT, Shh, Group 3 and Group 4), each with its clinical and genetic characteristics. Exosomes are vesicles secreted by cells, especially under conditions of cellular stress. The exosomes…
Glioblastoma (GBM) is one of the most aggressive tumors affecting the central nervous system (CNS). It is classified in primary GBM, diagnosed primarily, and in secondary GBM, when tumor evolves from low-grade or anaplastic glial lesions. The standard treatment for GBM consists primarily of surgical resection, radiotherapy and chemotherapy (temozolomide (TMZ) and other alkylating agents).…
Tumors of the central nervous system (CNS) are a frequent cause of death in children and adolescents. Recently, changes in epigenetic mechanisms have been implicated in the oncogenesis of high-grade gliomas (HGG) in children. Mutations in histone H3F3A (K27M or G34R/V/W) were related to tumor location and prognosis of pediatric gliomas. Clinically, several preclinical and clinical studies…
The achievements in increasing cure rates and disease control for several subtypes of pediatric cancer in the last decades are undeniable. Yet, high-grade astrocytomas (HGA) are a particularly lethal and disabling form of brain cancer, with barely 10% of children and young adults surviving 3 years after their diagnosis. Worldwide efforts in facing this devastating tumor are evolving. Rece…
Medulloblastoma is the most common brain cancer in childhood. The treatment available is surgery, chemiotherapy and radiotherapy. The use of more effective therapy, which grants a greater free disease survival and less later related effects it is very wanted. Thus, the search of new therapeutic targets became very important for childhood treatment. These targets can be related to cellular…
