Working on behalf of the Children's Cancer and Leukaemia Group (CCLG), the researchers have found that the WNT biological pathway is "activated" in over one-third of the cases of central nervous system primitive neuroectodermal tumours (CNS PNET).
The information is presented in chapters covering benign peripheral nerve sheath tumors (neurofibromas, schwannomas, and perineuriomas); malignant peripheral nerve sheath tumors; meningioma; hemangioblastoma of the central nervous system; paraganglioma and pheochromocytoma; atypical teratoid/rhabdoid tumors of the central nervous system; neuroblastoma and related tumors; medulloblastoma, primitive neuroectodermal tumors, and pineal tumors; and key mechanisms and pathways.
