Chemical modulation of autophagy as an adjunct to chemotherapy in childhood and adolescent brain tumors (2018)
Journal Article
Servante, J., Estranero, J., Meijer, L., Layfield, R., & Grundy, R. (2018). Chemical modulation of autophagy as an adjunct to chemotherapy in childhood and adolescent brain tumors. Oncotarget, 9(81), 35266-35277. https://doi.org/10.18632/oncotarget.26186

Brain tumors are the leading cause of cancer-related death in children and are the most challenging childhood cancer in relation to diagnosis, treatment, and outcome. One potential novel strategy to improve outcomes in cancer involves the manipulati...

Tumour compartment transcriptomics demonstrates the activation of inflammatory and odontogenic programmes in human adamantinomatous craniopharyngioma and identifies the MAPK/ERK pathway as a novel therapeutic target (2018)
Journal Article
Apps, J. R., Carreno, G., Gonzalez-Meljem, J. M., Haston, S., Guiho, R., Cooper, J. E., …Martinez-Barbera, J. P. (2018). Tumour compartment transcriptomics demonstrates the activation of inflammatory and odontogenic programmes in human adamantinomatous craniopharyngioma and identifies the MAPK/ERK pathway as a novel therapeutic target. Acta Neuropathologica, 135(5), 757-777. https://doi.org/10.1007/s00401-018-1830-2

Adamantinomatous craniopharyngiomas (ACPs) are clinically challenging tumours, the majority of which have activating mutations in CTNNB1. They are histologically complex, showing cystic and solid components, the latter comprised of different morpholo...

Translating childhood brain tumour research into clinical practice: the experience of molecular classification and diagnostics (2018)
Journal Article
Ritzmann, T. A., & Grundy, R. G. (2018). Translating childhood brain tumour research into clinical practice: the experience of molecular classification and diagnostics. Paediatrics and Child Health, 28(4), https://doi.org/10.1016/j.paed.2018.01.006

Diagnosis and treatment of paediatric brain tumours has shown limited progress over the last half century. However, in the past 10 years the development of molecular techniques for investigating these tumours has expanded exponentially. The use of me...
