comparative proteomic analysis of tumor mesenchymal-like cells derived from high grade vs. low grade gliomas
objective: gliomas are the most common primary brain tumors, and have been ranked as the fourth leading cause of cancer death. tumor mesenchymal-like stem cells (tmscs) contribute to the aggressive behavior of glial tumors by providing a favorable microenvironment for the malignant cells. the aims of our study were to identify differential proteome of tmscs derived from low vs. high grade gliom...
متن کاملDiffuse low-grade gliomas
Description : Diffuse low-grade gliomas (WHO grade II) are a sub-group of rare and heterogeneous primary brain tumors that usually occur in young patients living a normal life until the onset of a first seizure. A good understanding of the natural history of these gliomas namely: their steady progression, infiltration along white matter fibers and especially the risk of malignant transformation...

CME ABSTRACT Objective:To evaluate the predictive impact of chromosome 1p/19q deletions on the response and outcome of progressive low-grade gliomas (LGG) treated with up-front temozolomide (TMZ) chemotherapy. Methods: Adult patients with measurable, progressive LGG (WHO grade II) treated with TMZ delivered at the conventional schedule (200 mg/m/day for 5 consecutive days, repeated every 28 day...
متن کاملCurrent treatment of low grade gliomas
Low grade gliomas affect predominantly young adults, and have a relatively favorable prognosis compared to grade III and grade IV gliomas. The challenge for an optimal management of these patients is to find the balance between an optimal survival and the preservation of neurological function including cognition. Because all medical treatments may induce side effects, in young and nearly asympt...
متن کاملManagement of patients with low-grade gliomas.
The accurate diagnosis and management of patients who have infiltrating low-grade gliomas is increasing in importance. Recent advances in molecular characterization, imaging, and treatment of these tumors underscore this current focus of investigations.
