Computer-Based Intensity Measurement Assists Pathologists in Scoring Phosphatase and Tensin Homolog Immunohistochemistry - Clinical Associations in NSCLC Patients of the European Thoracic Oncology Platform Lungscape Cohort

Ata Tuna Ciftlik, Thomas Geiger, Ruben Casanova

Introduction: Phosphatase and tensin homolog (PTEN) loss is frequently observed in NSCLC and associated with both phosphoinositide 3-kinase activation and tumoral immunosuppression. PTEN immunohistochemistry is a valuable readout, but lacks standardized st ...

In vivo characterization of brain metabolism by (1) H MRS, (13) C MRS and (18) FDG PET reveals significant glucose oxidation of invasively growing glioma cells

Rolf Gruetter, Cristina Ramona Cudalbu, Bernard Lanz, Carole Poitry-Yamate, Marta Lai

Glioblastoma are notorious for their highly invasive growth, diffusely infiltrating adjacent brain structures that precludes complete resection, and is a major obstacle for cure. To characterize this "invisible" tumor part, we designed a high resolution mu ...

Detection and benchmarking of somatic mutations in cancer genomes using RNA-seq data

Philipp Bucher, Alexandre Coudray

To detect functional somatic mutations in tumor samples, whole-exome sequencing (WES) is often used for its reliability and relative low cost. RNA-seq, while generally used to measure gene expression, can potentially also be used for identification of soma ...

In vivo cerebral metabolism of glioblastoma xenografts assessed with ¹H MRS, ¹³C MRS and ¹⁸F-FDG PET

Marta Lai

Magnetic resonance spectroscopy (MRS) is a powerful tool when studying metabolism in intact and living organs preserving cells in their natural microenvironment with minimal external interference. The unique insights offered by the observation of metabolic ...

The flashlights on a distinct role of protein kinase C delta: Phosphorylation of regulatory and catalytic domain upon oxidative stress in glioma cells

Jaroslava Joniová, Veronika Huntosova

Glioblastoma multiforme are considered to be aggressive high-grade tumors with poor prognosis for patient survival. Photodynamic therapy is one of the adjuvant therapies which has been used for glioblastoma multiforme during last decade. Hypericin, a photo ...

Automated Classification of Brain Tumor Type in Whole-Slide Digital Pathology Images Using Local Representative Tiles

Adrien Raphaël Depeursinge

Computerized analysis of digital pathology images offers the potential of improving clinical care (e.g. automated diagnosis) and catalyzing research (e.g. discovering disease subtypes). There are two key challenges thwarting computerized analysis of digita ...

Early detection of human glioma sphere xenografts in mouse brain using diffusion MRI at 14.1 T

Rolf Gruetter, Hongxia Lei

Glioma models have provided important insights into human brain cancers. Among the investigative tools, MRI has allowed their characterization and diagnosis. In this study, we investigated whether diffusion MRI might be a useful technique for early detecti ...

Guidance molecule SEMA3A restricts tumor growth by differentially regulating the proliferation of tumor-associated macrophages

Michele De Palma, Mario Leonardo Squadrito, Margarita Bartish, Tatjana Wallmann

Accumulation of tumor-associated macrophages (TAM) correlates with malignant progression, immune suppression and poor prognosis. In this study, we defined a critical role for the cell-surface guidance molecule SEMA3A in differential proliferative control o ...

Gold nanoparticles as multimodality imaging agents for brain gliomas

Giorgio Margaritondo

Background: Nanoparticles can be used for targeted drug delivery, in particular for brain cancer therapy. However, this requires a detailed analysis of nanoparticles from the associated microvasculature to the tumor, not easy because of the required high s ...
