Supratentorial and spinal pediatric ependymomas display a hypermethylated phenotype which includes the loss of tumor suppressor genes involved in the control of cell growth and death (2012)
Journal Article
Rogers, H. A., Kilday, J., Mayne, C., Ward, J., Adamowicz-Brice, M., Schwalbe, E. C., …Grundy, R. G. (2012). Supratentorial and spinal pediatric ependymomas display a hypermethylated phenotype which includes the loss of tumor suppressor genes involved in the control of cell growth and death. Acta Neuropathologica, 123(5), https://doi.org/10.1007/s00401-011-0904-1

Epigenetic alterations, including methylation, have been shown to be an important mechanism of gene silencing in cancer. Ependymoma has been well characterized at the DNA copy number and mRNA expression levels. However little is known about DNA methy...

CD105 (Endoglin) exerts prognostic effects via its role in the microvascular niche of paediatric high grade glioma (2012)
Journal Article
in the microvascular niche of paediatric high grade glioma. Acta Neuropathologica, 124(1), https://doi.org/10.1007/s00401-012-0952-1

Paediatric high grade glioma (pHGG) (World Health Organisation astrocytoma grades III and IV) remains poor prognosis tumours, with a median survival of only 15 months following diagnosis. Current investigation of anti-angiogenic strategies has focuse... Read More about CD105 (Endoglin) exerts prognostic effects via its role in the microvascular niche of paediatric high grade glioma.
