Targeting glioma stem cells: a novel framework for brain tumors.
The past decade has seen a dramatic increase in stem cell research that focuses on glioma stem cells (GSC) and their mechanisms of action, revealing multiple potential targets for primary malignant brain tumors. Herein, we present a novel framework for considering GSC targets based on direct and indirect strategies. Direct strategies target GSC molecular pathways to overcome their resistance to...
متن کاملMultimodal Cardiovascular Imaging of Cardiac Tumors
Primary cardiac tumors are rare. Myxoma and sarcoma are the most common types of benign and malignant cardiac tumors, respectively. Secondary cardiac tumors, the majority of which are metastases, are more common than primary tumors. The use of an appropriate combination of cardiovascular imaging techniques is necessary for the differential diagnosis of cardiac tumors and for preoperative examin...
متن کاملGlioma-targeting micelles for optical/magnetic resonance dual-mode imaging
Surgical resection is the primary mode for glioma treatment, while gross total resection is difficult to achieve, due to the invasiveness of the gliomas. Meanwhile, the tumor-resection region is closely related to survival rate and life quality. Therefore, we developed optical/magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) bifunctional targeted micelles for glioma so as to delineate the glioma location befor...
متن کاملAn Efficient Framework for Accurate Arterial Input Selection in DSC-MRI of Glioma Brain Tumors
Introduction: Automatic arterial input function (AIF) selection has an essential role in quantification of cerebral perfusion parameters. The purpose of this study is to develop an optimal automatic method for AIF determination in dynamic susceptibility contrast magnetic resonance imaging (DSC-MRI) of glioma brain tumors by using a new preprocessing method.Material and Methods: For this study, ...
متن کاملMultimodal Imaging in Neurofibromatosis Type 1-associated Nerve Sheath Tumors.
UNLABELLED Neurofibromatosis type 1 (NF1) is a neurogenetic disorder. Individuals with NF1 may develop a variety of benign and malignant tumors of which peripheral nerve sheath tumors represent the most frequent entity. Plexiform neurofibromas may demonstrate a locally destructive growth pattern, may cause severe symptoms and may undergo malignant transformation into malignant peripheral nerve ...
