The invasive region of glioblastoma defined by 5ALA guided surgery has an altered cancer stem cell marker profile compared to central tumour (2017)
Journal Article
Smith, S. J., Diksin, M., Chhaya, S., Sairam, S., Estevez-Cebrero, M. A., & Rahman, R. (2017). The invasive region of glioblastoma defined by 5ALA guided surgery has an altered cancer stem cell marker profile compared to central tumour. International Journal of Molecular Sciences, 18(11), https://doi.org/10.3390/ijms18112452

Glioblastoma, a WHO grade IV astrocytoma, is a highly aggressive and heterogeneous tumour that infiltrates deeply into surrounding brain parenchyma, making complete surgical resection impossible. Despite chemo-radiotherapy, the residual cell populati...

The molecular and phenotypic basis of the glioma invasive perivascular niche (2017)
Journal Article
Diksin, M., Smith, S. J., & Rahman, R. (2017). The molecular and phenotypic basis of the glioma invasive perivascular niche. International Journal of Molecular Sciences, 18(11), Article 2342. https://doi.org/10.3390/ijms18112342

Gliomas are devastating brain cancers that have poor prognostic outcomes for their patients. Short overall patient survival is due to a lack of durable, efficacious treatment options. Such therapeutic difficulties exist, in part, due to several gliom... Read More about The molecular and phenotypic basis of the glioma invasive perivascular niche.

Evaluation of a novel antibody to define histone 3.3 G34R mutant brain tumours (2017)
Journal Article
Haque, F., Varlet, P., Puntonet, J., Storer, L., Bountali, A., Rahman, R., Grill, J., Carcaboso, A. M., Jones, C., Layfield, R., & Grundy, R. G. (2017).

Missense somatic mutations affecting histone H3.1 and H3.3 proteins are now accepted as the hallmark of paediatric diffuse intrinsic pontine gliomas (DIPG), non-brain stem paediatric high grade gliomas (pHGG) as well as a subset of adult glioblastoma...
