Study Finds Link Between Head Injuries and Elevated Brain Cancer Risk

A recent study conducted at Mass General Brigham has found a potential link between head injuries and an elevated risk of developing brain cancer. The researchers analyzed data collected from over 75,000 people with traumatic brain injuries that ranged from mild to severe between 2000 and 2024, and discovered that patients with a history of suffering traumatic brain injury (TBI) were more likely to develop malignant brain tumors compared to patients who had not experienced traumatic brain injuries in the past. Sometimes referred to as intracranial injuries, TBIs occur when external mechanical forces such as rapid deceleration or acceleration, shock…

Study Reveals Potential Way to Treat Pediatric Gliomas

A joint study between the Broad Institute and the Dana-Farber Cancer Institute has discovered a new and potentially effective way to treat pediatric gliomas. The research revealed that a percentage of children diagnosed with gliomas, an incredibly common type of pediatric brain cancer, may respond to certain inhibitors that have already been approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration. According to the researchers, 8.9% of pediatric glioma patients exhibited fibroblast growth factor receptor alterations, a group of proteins that play a key role in cell differentiation, growth, and development. These alterations increased the gliomas’ sensitivity to inhibitors that can…

New Machine Learning Model Predicts Cancer Severity, Aids Treatment Planning

A joint team of Polish and Brazilian researchers has developed a new machine learning model that can help improve cancer treatment planning by accurately predicting cancer severity. The model uses machine learning technology to identify specific proteins in tumor cells and predict how aggressive the tumors will be, allowing physicians to tailor cancer treatments for their patients. With cancer diagnoses increasing globally, the medical industry is eager for tools that improve diagnosis and treatment. This model represents some of the most cutting-edge efforts to gain deeper insight into tumor development. As machine learning and artificial intelligence grow more advanced by…

New Scanning Method Could Improve How Brain Tumors are Treated

Researchers from NHS Grampian and the University of Aberdeen have been granted funding to study a novel scanning method that could improve how physicians scan and treat brain tumors. The Scottish Government awarded the research team nearly $470,000 in funding to investigate new means of treating glioblastomas, an aggressive brain tumor that affects tens of thousands of Americans each year. Glioblastomas are responsible for 48% of brain tumors in the primary malignant class and are estimated to take 10,000 American lives each year. The Chief Scientist Office Translational Clinical Studies grant will enable the research team to generate entirely unique…

Study Identifies Key Enzyme That Could Be Targeted to Fight Brain Cancers

Researchers at Ohio State University Medical Center have identified a key enzyme that may be used to combat one of the deadliest types of brain cancer. Known as PGM3, this enzyme plays a critical role in the hexosamine biosynthesis pathway, which contributes to rapid tumor growth through protein and lipid glycosylation. Targeting PGM3 could significantly improve glioblastoma treatment outcomes. Glioblastomas are highly malignant tumors that typically form in the brain or spinal cord. They spread rapidly from their onset, causing increased intracranial pressure and symptoms such as headaches, nausea, drowsiness, blurred vision, seizures, and personality changes. These tumors are particularly…
