Scientists studying the cellular origins of pineoblastoma discovered a dependency applicable to anatomically distinct brain tumor types, which may be therapeutically targetable. MEMPHIS, Tenn., March ...

Similarities among three pediatric brain tumors that arise in different structures of the CNS – pineoblastoma, retinoblastoma and Group 3 medulloblastoma – have been linked to their shared origin ...

Researchers mapped pineoblastoma tumors at single-cell resolution and found they rely on genes linked to light sensing. The same dependency appears in medulloblastoma, and retinoblastoma, offering a ...

Researchers have discovered that severe brain tumours in children that appear to be completely different actually arise from the same type of cell. This cell type can give rise to tumours in the ...
