Abstract Molecular characterization has resulted in improved classification of pediatric brain tumors, leading to many novel (sub)types with distinct oncodriving events. To study tumor biology and to perform translational research on each of these tumors, preclinical models are essential. However, we are currently lacking sufficient models, especially in vitro, to represent each (sub)type and their heterogeneity. To generate large series of preclinical in vitro models for pediatric brain tumors, we are using organoid technology. Cells from patient samples and patient-derived xenograft samples

ABSTRACT OBJECTIVE Few molecular targets are both consistently and selectively expressed in a majority of central nervous system (CNS) neoplasms. Receptor tyrosine kinases have been implicated in brain tumor oncogenesis. We previously isolated one such receptor, discoidin domain receptor-1 (DDR1), from high-grade pediatric brain tumors. Here, we analyze the cellular origin and distribution of DDR1 expression in human brain tumors and its expression in tumor cells relative to surrounding brain. METHODS By use of a digoxigenin-labeled DDR1 riboprobe, we investigated the expression of DDR1 messen

Brain cancer is a group of diverse and rapidly growing malignancies that originate in the central nervous system (CNS) and have a poor prognosis. The complexity of brain structure and function makes brain cancer modeling extremely difficult, limiting pathological studies and therapeutic developments. Advancements in human pluripotent stem cell technology have opened a window of opportunity for brain cancer modeling, providing a wealth of customizable methods to simulate the disease in vitro. This is achieved with the advent of genome editing and genetic engineering technologies that can simula

Malignant melanoma is a type of highly aggressive tumor, which has a strong ability to metastasize to brain, and 60–70% of patients die from the spread of the tumor into the central nervous system.

However, it is unclear whether exosomes also participate in the brain metastasis of malignant melanoma. Here, we established a human blood–brain barrier (BBB) model by co-culturing human brain mic

The interaction between TAMs and tumor cells is crucial for tumor progression and includes several known pathways. Still, murine glioma models only partially mirror the human tumor microenvironment.
