Researchers have developed a new approach for treating glioblastoma brain cancer. The findings are shown to extend the life of animals treated for the cancer.
Brain Cancer
Brain Cancer research articles are listed. Brain cancer news covers topics such as diagnosis, brain tumors, chemotherapy, gamma knife technology, brain cancer treatments, glioblastomas, stem cell research, neurosurgery, medicine, genetics, neurology, and other brain research.
Researchers discover an enzyme, IDH, which facilitates the breakdown of specific amino acids makes glioblastoma brain cancer particularly aggressive.
Researchers have identified a biochemical pathway in cancer stem cells which are essential for the development of head and neck cancers.
Researchers have identified an abnormal metabolic pathway which drives cancer cell growth in particular glioblastoma brain cancer subtypes.
A new drug could help increase the effectiveness of radiation therapy for patients with glioblastoma multiforme, the most deadly form of brain cancer. The ATM kinase inhibitor, in combination with radiation therapy, helped significantly extend survival rates in mouse models of GBM.
Researchers discover stem cells from a patient's own fat could potentially deliver new treatments directly to the brain after the removal of a glioblastoma, the most common form of brain cancer.
Researchers announce the discovery of a chemical probe, UNC1215, which could be used to investigate the function of malignant brain tumor domain proteins.
A new study discovers molecular pathways that could lead to new targeted therapies which may potentially treat Glioblastoma, the most common and lethal form of brain cancer in adults.
A new study argues that prolonged chemotherapy decreases the development of new brain cells, and disrupts ongoing brain rhythms in the part of the brain responsible for making new memories.
Cancer treatment vaccine research leads to remission in a child with a relapsed neuroblastoma.
Researchers discover the genetic landscape of the most common form of brain tumor can be explained by abnormalities in five genes. The finding could help to develop personalized medical therapies and treatment options.
In a study published in Neuro-Oncology, researchers at Mayo Clinic identify an important association between the naturally occurring enzyme Kallikrein 6, also known as KLK6, and glioblastoma multiforme tumors.
