1 Glioblastoma Multiforme Highly malignant, invasive, difficult-to-treat primary brain tumor" " Frequency: 9,000 cases/year (peak age, years)" " Recurrence: rapid growth; size may double every 10 days" " Median survival: ~ 1 year"

2 Survival of adult patients with glioblastoma multiforme" Kaplan-Meier Survival Curves Survival % Months from Surgery

3 Pediatric Brain Tumors" Frequency : 3000 cases/year"

4 Pediatric brainstem glioma" Brainstem location represents 8-15% of all brain tumors in the pediatric population" Usually inoperable tumors because of the particular location in the brain "

5 Survival for Children with Diffuse Pontine Gliomas (CCG 9941)" J Clin Oncol 20: , 2002

6 Tumor cells multiply which results in growth"

7 Normal growth is controlled"

8 Why do tumor cells grow?" Tumor cells receive the instructions to grow but are insensitive to instructions to stop"

9 Propagation of neural stem cells" Blue: nucleus" Green: nestin" Nestin: marker of stem cells"

10 Differentiation of neural stem cells " in neurons and glia" Blue: nucleus" Green: GFAP" astrocytes" Red: β-iiitub" neurons"

11 Brain development requires a controlled switch from proliferation to differentiation?"?" Stem Cells Differentiated " neurons

12 Neurogenesis and Brain tumors " Disruption of pathways essential for neurogenesis have been implicated in childhood and adult brain cancers, for which immature progenitor cells have been proposed as cells-of-origin"

13 Id proteins: inhibitors of differentiation" Undifferentiated state Differentiated state High growth potential High amounts of Id proteins Low growth potential Low amounts of Id proteins Iavarone and Lasorella, 2003

31 Malignant gliomas invade the normal brain

32 The mesenchymal signature of high-grade glioma" Unsupervised clustering of 76 high grade tumors by expression of 108 genes that are positively or negatively associated with survival reveals 3 tumors classes - Proneural (PN), Mesenchymal (Mes) and Proliferative (Prolif)." Malignant gliomas belonging to the mesenchymal sub-class express genes linked to the most aggressive proper9es of glioblastoma (migra9on, invasion and angiogenesis) and mark the worst clinical outcome.

33 The mesenchymal network of six major hubs " of transcription factors in high-grade gliomas" Mesenchymal genes Activator" Repressor"
