Uncommon Progression of an Extradural Spinal Meningioma
Extradural spinal meningiomas are rare. Our understanding of purely extradural spinal meningiomas is still incomplete and they may be easily confused with malignant neoplasms, much more common in this location. We report a rare case of a purely extradural thoracic spine meningioma in a 70-year-old man, with an unusual progression. In addition we discuss the pathogenesis of these tumors and the ...
متن کاملGenetic Polymorphisms in Meningioma Formation and Progression
Sporadic meningiomas are common tumors of the arachnoid membrane that arise within the general population. Approximately half of these tumors arise through inactivation of the NF2 tumor suppressor as determined by loss of heterozygosity (LOH) of 22q, the chromosome arm where the NF2 locus is located. Recently, SNP309, a single nucleotide polymorphism in the promoter region of MDM2, was found to...
متن کاملMolecular biological determinants of meningioma progression and aggressive behavior.
Meningiomas are the most commonly reported brain tumor in the United States. Though these tumors are often surgically curable, even World Health Organization (WHO) grade 1 meningiomas can recur. The variability seen in the clinical behavior of meningiomas suggests that these tumors are genetically heterogeneous. The most common genetic aberrations found in meningiomas are deletions of chromosom...
متن کاملMolecular Biological Determinations of Meningioma Progression and Recurrence
Meningiomas are tumors that arise from the coverings of the brain or spinal cord. 5% of the cases turn into malignant forms with aggressive clinical behavior and increased risk of tumor recurrence. One hundred and five patients with meningiomas were operated by open surgery. To investigate predictors of meningioma recurrence in total 124 samples of 105 patients were investigated by iFISH. Dual-...
متن کاملCharacterization of Thap10 and Thap11 as Transcriptional Repressors in Dna Damage and Colon Cancer Progression
The THAP (Thanatos associated protein) domain is an evolutionarily conserved zinc-finger motif highly similar to the sequence specific DNA binding domain of Drosophila P element transposase. Emerging data suggest THAP proteins may function in DNA and chromatin dependent processes, including transcription. However, the transcriptional regulatory function, mechanisms of action, and role of most T...
