Oligodendroglioma (OD) is a subtype of glioma occurring in the central nervous system. The 1p/19q codeletion is a prognostic marker of OD with an isocitrate dehydrogenase (IDH) mutation and is associated with a clinically favorable overall survival (OS); however, the exact underlying
K(+) channels play an important role in glial cell proliferation and are functionally expressed in glial tumors. Because voltage-gated K(+) channel (Kv) subtypes Kv1.3 and Kv1.5 have been shown to contribute to growth-related properties of normal glia rather specifically, we investigated different
Gliomas are the most common primary brain tumors in adults. Anaplastic astrocytoma and glioblastoma multiforme represent malignant astrocytomas, which are the most common type of malignant gliomas. Despite research efforts in cancer therapy, the prognosis of patients with malignant gliomas remains
BACKGROUND
Single photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) with 201Tl and 123I-alpha-methyl tyrosine (123I-IMT) are routine methods for the evaluation of brain tumors. 123I-IMT transport across the blood brain barrier is mediated by an amino acid carrier, 201Tl accumulation is analogous to
A reversed-phase high-performance liquid chromatographic technique for the determination of free amino acids in five biopsies of human brain tumors (two meningiomas, one glioblastoma and two oligodendrogliomas) is described. The frozen tissues were homogenized, deproteinized with perchloric acid and
The blood-brain barrier (BBB) regulation is characterized by an interplay between endothelial cells, subendothelial basal laminae and astrocytic cells. Astroglial cells are highly polarized by the differentiation of perivascular membrane domains. These domains are characterized by the aggregation
