Project description:Clinical and molecular risk factors were analyzed in a large cohort of patients with Atypical Teratoid Rhabdoid Tumors (ATRT) recruited to the European Rhabdoid Regsitry (EU-RHAB) and data were validated in a second independent cohort of ATRT patients.
Project description:Rhabdoid Tumors (RT) are highly aggressive tumors that are frequently localized in the central nervous system (CNS) where they are termed atypical teratoid and rhabdoid tumors (ATRT). We generated conditional Smarcb1-deficient mouse model leads to CNS Smarcb1-deficient tumors. We used microarrays to compared gene expression profilings of various human and mouse tumors. Our data demonstrate that the Smarcb1-deficient mouse model recapitulates the diversity of human RT.

Project description:Investigation of genetic dependencies in atypical teratoid rhabdoid tumors
Project description:The samples deposited here are part of the ATRT consensus cohort as published in Ho et al. ("Molecular subgrouping of Atypical Teratoid/Rhabdoid Tumors (ATRT) - a reinvestigation and current consensus") and have so far not been included in any publication.
Project description:Embryonal tumors of the central nervous system (CNS) represent a highly malignant tumor group of medulloblastoma (MB), atypical teratoid/rhabdoid tumor (AT/RT), and primitive neuroectodermal tumor (PNET) that frequently afflict children. In this study, we report transcriptome traits in MB by using gene expression microarray analyses. We also compare MB dataset with AT/RT cases and AT/RT-like cases. 22 MB cases are subjected to transcriptome analysis
