Annexin A2 (AnxA2) is a highly conserved Ca2+-regulated membrane binding protein, which affects cell mobility and tumor progression. Adamantinomatous craniopharyngioma (AdaCP) are a kind of epithelial tumors of the sellar region with high tendency to recur. Robust biomarkers are required to predict
OBJECTIVE In this study, the authors investigated the underlying mechanisms responsible for high tumor recurrence rates of adamantinomatous craniopharyngioma (ACP) after radiotherapy and developed new targeted treatment protocols to minimize recurrence. ACPs are characterized by the activation of
OBJECTIVE
Constitutive Wnt signaling caused by mutations in the β-catenin gene is a molecular hallmark of adamantinomatous craniopharyngiomas (adaCP) and promotes infiltration into adjacent brain tissue. Herein, we studied the pathogenic role of epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) activation in
Ezrin is a cytoskeleton-associated protein that appears to link actin filaments to the plasma membrane. Immunocytochemical studies suggest that ezrin is expressed in epithelial cells but not in mesenchymal cells. In addition, ezrin is expressed by certain epithelial tumors, such as renal cell
Meningioma is a hormone-related intracranial tumor. Brain tumor samples were collected from 32 Chinese patients, 20 of whom had meningiomas. Estrogen receptors were present in 6 of 17 meningiomas, 1 hemangioblastoma, 1 gemistocytic astrocytoma, and 1 neurilemoma. Of the 26 samples assayed for
OBJECTIVE
To summarize the current knowledge on v-RAF murine sarcoma viral oncogene homologue B1 (BRAF) aberrations in tumours of the central nervous system.
RESULTS
BRAF alterations are found in variable frequencies across a wide spectrum of diverse central nervous system neoplasms. BRAF V600 point
