Tumor heterogeneity describes differences between tumors. Tumor heterogeneity can refer to differences between (1) tumors in different patients, (2) cancer cells in an individual patient's tumor, or (3) a primary and metastatic tumor. Understanding the heterogeneity of a tumor can facilitate diagnosis and treatment.
Current methods to treat malignant brain tumors are highly intrusive, leading to poor quality of life with abysmal patient survival rates. Combined with radiation therapy, first/second-line...
In line with the role of T cells as critical mediators of the adaptive immune response, recombinational and junctional diversity of the T cell receptor makes each T cell almost entirely uniq...
Brain malignancies can either originate from within the CNS (gliomas) or invade from other locations in the body (metastases). A highly immunosuppressive tumor microenvironment (TME) influen...
