For over a century, researchers have noted that neuroblastomas exhibit diverse and often dramatic clinical behaviors (Figure 1). (For a timeline of the major advances in neuroblastoma research ...

What sounds contradictory at first glance, namely firing a tumor with a growth factor, makes sense in neuroblastoma. Neuroblastoma is a tumor of the peripheral nervous system and the most common solid ...

These kinds of neuroblastomas can be classified into three distinct subgroups, each demonstrating unique prognostic implications and varying vulnerabilities to investigational therapies." ...

The study, published today (5 February 2021) in Science Advances, sought to understand why neuroblastomas range in severity, with some easy to treat and others having relatively low five-year survival ...

Of 340 eligible participants, 190 underwent resection, 57 were treated with chemotherapy, and 93 were observed with gross residual tumor. Of those 93 patients with unresected tumors, spontaneous ...

Despite being rare, neuroblastomas account for approximately 15% of all cancer deaths in children.

Children who develop neuroblastomas, a rare form of cancer which develops in nerve cells, may benefit from receiving certain anti-tumor drugs as well as chemotherapy, a new trial has found.

Neuroblastomas have a wildly varied spectrum of clinical behavior that ranges from spontaneous regression to progressive disease and metastasis, report Drs. Yu-Feng Guo and Shi-Cang Yu.

Although most high-risk neuroblastomas are responsive to chemotherapy, relapse is common and long-term survival is <40%, underscoring the need for more effective treatments. We evaluated the ...

Three neuroblastomas and cell line SK-N-SH express both the wild-type and mutated Phox2B alleles. Oligo dT-primed cDNA of tumours N129, N511 and N532 and cell lines LAN-1 (control) and SK-N-SH ...
