DOI: 10.1007/s11060-020-03567-9
Abstract: Recent molecular characterization of gliomas has uncovered somatic gene variation and DNA methylation changes that are associated with etiology, prognosis, and therapeutic response. Here we describe genomic profiling of gliomas assessed for associations between genetic… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.rcl.2021.01.001
Abstract: Molecular features are now essential in distinguishing between glioma histologic subtypes. Currently, isocitrate dehydrogenase mutation, 1p19q codeletion, and MGMT methylation status play significant roles in optimizing medical and surgical treatment. Noninvasive pretreatment and post-treatment determination… read more here.

DOI: 10.1093/neuonc/noz175.657
Abstract: Glioblastoma (GBM) and MGMT have been reported to have sexual dimorphism. In multiple studies, including our own population-based cohort analysis, females had higher rates of MGMT methylation and improved methylation-associated progression-free and overall survival outcomes… read more here.

DOI: 10.3390/cancers15051384
Abstract: Simple Summary MGMT-methylated glioblastomas have significantly lower ADC values, as compared to the glioblastomas with no MGMT methylation in peritumoral white matter. There were no differences in enhancing tumor areas. These findings could improve predictions… read more here.

DOI: 10.3727/096504021x16214197880808
Abstract: Unresectable neuroendocrine neoplasms (NENs) often poorly respond to standard therapeutic approaches. Alkylating agents, in particular temozolomide, commonly used to treat high-grade brain tumors including glioblastomas, have recently been tested in advanced or metastatic NENs, where… read more here.
