A fatty-acid based probe for near-infrared fluorescence guided surgery of glioblastoma

High-grade gliomas (HGG) are the most common and most aggressive primary tumors of the brain. Despite recent advances in neuro-oncology survival of these tumors remains around 12-15 months. The first-line of treatment is surgical resection. However, due to ...

Elucidating and modulating regulatory pathways so as to reprogram the immunosuppressive tumor microenvironment for therapeutic benefit

Agnieszka Alicja Chryplewicz

Glioblastoma (GBM) is the most frequent and highly malignant form of brain cancer. New therapeutic regimens are urgently needed as GBM patients present with a minimal response to currently-approved therapies. The goal of this project is to identify new the ...

Microfluidic T Cell Selection by Cellular Avidity

Li Tang, Armand Kurum, Alexandre Harari

No T cell receptor (TCR) T cell therapies have obtained clinical approval. The lack of strategies capable of selecting and recovering potent T cell candidates may be a contributor to this. Existing protocols for selecting TCR T cell clones for cell therapi ...

Hyperpolarized C-13-glucose magnetic resonance highlights reduced aerobic glycolysis in vivo in infiltrative glioblastoma

Rolf Gruetter, Cristina Ramona Cudalbu, Bernard Lanz, Mor-Miri Mishkovsky, Jocelyne Bloch, Arnaud Comment

Glioblastoma (GBM) is the most aggressive brain tumor type in adults. GBM is heterogeneous, with a compact core lesion surrounded by an invasive tumor front. This front is highly relevant for tumor recurrence but is generally non-detectable using standard ...

Metabolic and transcriptomic profiles of glioblastoma invasion revealed by comparisons between patients and corresponding orthotopic xenografts in mice

Lijing Xin, Cristina Ramona Cudalbu, Mario Gaetano Lepore, Marta Lai

The invasive behavior of glioblastoma, the most aggressive primary brain tumor, is considered highly relevant for tumor recurrence. However, the invasion zone is difficult to visualize by Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) and is protected by the blood brain ...

Combined deletion of Glut1 and Glut3 impairs lung adenocarcinoma growth

Rolf Gruetter, Anders Meibom, Graham Knott, Bernard Lanz, Stéphane Laurent Escrig, Nadine Fournier, Mario Gaetano Lepore, Etienne Meylan, Louise Helene Soegaard Jensen, Caroline Anne-Lyse Contat

Glucose utilization increases in tumors, a metabolic process that is observed clinically by F-18-fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography (F-18-FDG-PET). However, is increased glucose uptake important for tumor cells, and which transporters are impl ...

Somatic Mitochondrial DNA Point Mutations Used as Biomarkers to Demonstrate Genomic Heterogeneity in Primary Prostate Cancer

Paul Refinetti, Per Olaf Ekstrom

Primary prostate tumor heterogeneity is poorly understood, leaving research efforts with challenges regarding the initiation and advancement of the disease. The growth of tumor cells is accompanied by mutations in nuclear and in mitochondrial genomes. Thus ...

Metabolic plasticity and glucose transporter redundancy dictate lung adenocarcinoma growth

Caroline Anne-Lyse Contat

Lung cancers represent the leading cause of cancer-related deaths worldwide. These pulmonary cancers count several histological subgroups, whose non-small cell lung cancers, subject of our study. We were precisely interested in the most common subtype of n ...

Enhanced MR Image Classification Using Hybrid Statistical and Wavelets Features

Mohammad Khaja Nazeeruddin

Classification of brain tumor is one of the most vital tasks within medical image processing. Classification of images greatly depends on the features extracted from the image, and thus, feature extraction plays a great role in the correct classification o ...
