      Biedermann, Julia; Preussler, Mathias; Conde, Marina; Peitzsch, Mirko; Richter, Susan; Wiedemuth, Ralf; Abou-El-Ardat, Khalil; Krüger, Alexander; Meinhardt, Mathias; Schackert, Gabriele; Leenders, William P.J.; Herold-Mende, Christel; Niclou, Simone Pierrette; Bjerkvig, Rolf; Eisenhofer, Graeme; Temme, Achim; Seifert, Michael; Kunz-Schughart, Leoni A.; Schröck, Evelin; Klink, Barbara (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019-12-16)
      IDH1R132H (isocitrate dehydrogenase 1) mutations play a key role in the development of low-grade gliomas. IDH1wt converts isocitrate to α-ketoglutarate while reducing nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NADP+), ...
    • Patient-derived organoids and orthotopic xenografts of primary and recurrent gliomas represent relevant patient avatars for precision oncology

      Patient-based cancer models are essential tools for studying tumor biology and for the assessment of drug responses in a translational context. We report the establishment a large cohort of unique organoids and patient-derived ...
    • Stem cell-associated heterogeneity in Glioblastoma results from intrinsic tumor plasticity shaped by the microenvironment 

      Dirkse, Anna; Golebiewska, Anna; Buder, Thomas; Nazarov, Petr V.; Muller, Arnaud; Poovathingal, Suresh K.; Brons, Nicolaas H. C.; Leite, Sonia; Sauvageot, Nicolas; Sarkisjan, Dzjemma; Seyfrid, Mathieu; Fritah, Sabrina; Stieber, Daniel; Michelucci, Alesandro; Hertel, Frank; Herold-Mende, Christel; Azuaje, Francisco; Skupin, Alexander; Bjerkvig, Rolf; Deutsch, Andreas; Voss-Böhme, Anja; Niclou, Simone Pierrette (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019-04-16)
      The identity and unique capacity of cancer stem cells (CSC) to drive tumor growth and resistance have been challenged in brain tumors. Here we report that cells expressing CSC-associated cell membrane markers in Glioblastoma ...
    • Temozolomide-induced rna interactome uncovers novel lncrna regulatory loops in glioblastoma 

      Fritah, Sabrina; Muller, Arnaud; Jiang, Wei; Mitra, Ramkrishna; Sarmini, Mohamad; Dieterle, Monika; Golebiewska, Anna; Ye, Tao; van Dyck, Eric; Herold-Mende, Christel; Zhao, Zhongming; Azuaje, Francisco; Niclou, Simone Pierrette (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020-09-10)
      Resistance to chemotherapy by temozolomide (TMZ) is a major cause of glioblastoma (GBM) recurrence. So far, attempts to characterize factors that contribute to TMZ sensitivity have largely focused on protein-coding genes, ...
