Gliomas are among the deadliest brain tumors, with limited treatment options and poor survival rates. Scientists from China ...

While surgery using 5-aminolevulinic acid improves total resection rates in high-grade glioma, the best outcomes are seen ...

Each time a cell divides, a small section of each chromosome's protective cap—the telomere—is worn away. Most cells use an ...

Gliomas are among the deadliest brain tumors, with limited treatment options and poor survival rates. Scientists from China ...

The cells in a glioma look like healthy brain cells called glial cells. As a glioma grows, it forms a mass of cells called a tumor. The tumor can grow to press on brain or spinal cord tissue, ...

Diffuse midline glioma (DMG), H3K27-altered, is a lethal pediatric high-grade tumor, lacking effective treatment options, primarily depending on clinical trials. Epigenetic agent-based ...

If you have an IDH-mutant glioma, the tumor cells release an IDH enzyme that doesn’t work as it should. The mutant enzyme produces D-2 hydroxyglutarate (D-2HG) — a molecule that encourages ...

Gliomas are among the most aggressive brain tumors, with glioblastoma offering a median survival of 12 to 15 months. Despite advances in surgical, ...

In our 2019 paper, we tested an antiseizure medicine called perampanel that targets a receptor on glioma cells. It really nicely slowed glioma growth in mice. We can take FDA-approved medicines ...

Depiction of europium complexes changing structure upon interacting with a tumor cell. [Mengfei Wang, et al. Scientific Reports. January 22, 2024] Collaborating researchers led by a team at ...

These cells’ rhythms are a drumbeat that further amps up glioma growth. When the team physically destroyed these cells, or pharmacologically suppressed them, tumor development drastically slowed.
