Correspondence BRiTISH 301 Tricyclic Antidepressants SIR,-I am worried by one sentence in the article on tricyclic antidepressants (13 April, p. 102): "Jaundice, which is very uncommon , is of the cholestatic type similar to that found in chlorpromazine." This is misleading. Jaundice is one of the more frequent side-effects reported from imipramine and imitrip-tyline, the most widely used membe...

Glioblastoma Multiforme Stem Cells

Glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) is an aggressive, malignant, and lethal brain tumor, resistant to all current forms of treatment. The rapidly emerging focus on cancer stem cells embodies a paradigm shift in our understanding of tumor pathogenesis, while the development of powerful genome-wide screening techniques has provided cause for optimism related to the development of more reliable therapie...

Glioblastoma Multiforme in Children, A Case-Report

ABSTRACT: Glioblastoma multiforme is the most malignant primary brain tumor .It usually occurs in the 5th and 6th decades of life and is rare in childern. In this paper a case of glioblastoma multiforme is reported in a ten year - old child who presented with two week's history of headache with no neurological defect.C.T scan revealed å right frontal mass with massive surrounding oedema.

O27: Interaction of Cancer Stem Cells and Microglia in Glioblastoma Multiforme

Malignant gliomas are highly invasive brain tumors with the occurrence of multiple microglia/macrophages in the tumor microenvironment. Macrophages/microglia that found in glioma microenvironment, as tumor-infiltrating immune cells, can play a harmful role in tumor progression. In addition, glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) contains multiple aberrant differentiation and tumorigenic cancer stem cell...
