Pediatric gliomas as neurodevelopmental disorders.
Brain tumors represent the most common solid tumor of childhood, with gliomas comprising the largest fraction of these cancers. Several features distinguish them from their adult counterparts, including their natural history, causative genetic mutations, and brain locations. These unique properties suggest that the cellular and molecular etiologies that underlie their development and maintenanc...
متن کاملRecent perspectives of pediatric neurodevelopmental disorders.
The assorted circumstances characterized by malfunctioning in cognition, communication or motor skills lead to abnormal development of the central nervous system (CNS) in young infants. These conditions are collectively termed as neurodevelopmental disorders (NDDs) and are usually diagnosed during childhood or infancy. NDDs occur as frequent as 1-3% in the general population and their diagnosti...
متن کاملNew strategies in pediatric gliomas: molecular advances in pediatric low-grade gliomas as a model.
Pediatric low-grade gliomas (pLGG) account for more brain tumors in children than any other histologic subtype. While surgery, chemotherapy and radiation remain the mainstay of upfront treatment, recent advances in molecular interrogation of pLGG have shown a small number of recurring genetic mutations in these tumors that might be exploited therapeutically. Notable findings include abnormaliti...
متن کاملNeurodevelopmental Disorders
The effective identification of neurodevelopmental disorders is essential for early diagnosis and provision of intervention services. For many of these conditions, one of the primary domains of abnormality is language development. This review addresses what is known about the earliest indicators of language impairment across a range of neurodevelopmental disorders; consideration is given to bot...
متن کاملCNVs in neurodevelopmental disorders
Copy number variations (CNVs) consist of duplications or deletions of chromosomal regions ranging from a few hundred to more than a million bases in size, and are likely to play a role in phenotypic diversity and evolution. Recent advances in the identification and mapping of CNVs among normal individuals and in model systems, using bioinformatics and hybridization-based methods, are beginning ...
