The presence of two proteins of the proline-directed protein kinase (PDPK), the catalytic subunit p34cdc2 and the regulatory subunit p58cyclin A was determined in seven primitive neuroectodermal tumors (PNETs), three choroid plexus neoplasms and eleven astroglial tumors. The highest expression was
Medulloblastoma (MB) is the most common and deadliest brain tumor in children. Proline-, glutamic acid-, and leucine-rich protein 1 (PELP1) is a scaffolding protein and its oncogenic signaling is implicated in the progression of several cancers. However, the role of PELP1 in the progression of MB
Peptidyl prolyl isomerases (PPIases) are broadly expressed enzymes that accelerate the cis-trans isomerization of proline peptide bonds. The most extensively studied PPIase family member is protein interacting with never in mitosis A1 (PIN1), which isomerizes phosphorylated serine/threonine⁻proline
OBJECTIVE
Was to evaluate the outcome of multimodality treatment in resectable primary Ewing sarcoma/primitive neuroectodermal tumor ES/PNET of the ribs and role of thoracoscopy in facilitating resection of these tumors.
METHODS
This was a retrospective study including 22 patients with primary
JC virus, JCV, is a human neurotropic polyomavirus whose replication in glial cells causes the fatal demyelinating disease progressive multifocal leukoencephalopathy (PML). In addition, JCV possesses oncogenic activity and expression of its transforming protein, large T-antigen (T-Ag), in several
Amino acid (AA) pathways may contain druggable targets for glioblastoma (GBM). Literature reviews and GBM database ( http://r2.amc.nl ) analyses were carried out to screen for such targets among 95 AA related enzymes.
First, we identified the genes that were differentially expressed in GBMs (3
Hedgehog pathway regulates tissue patterning and cell proliferation. Gli1 transcription factor is the major effector of Hedgehog signaling and its deregulation is often associated to medulloblastoma formation. Proteolytic processes represent a critical mechanism by which this pathway is turned off.
