BET Bromodomain Inhibition of MYC-Amplified Medulloblastoma

…, R Wechsler-Reya, WA Weiss, FJ Swartling… - Clinical Cancer …, 2014 - AACR
Purpose: MYC-amplified medulloblastomas are highly lethal tumors. Bromodomain and
extraterminal (BET) bromodomain inhibition has recently been shown to suppress MYC-…

[PDF][PDF] Non-stem cell origin for oligodendroglioma

AI Persson, C Petritsch, FJ Swartling, M Itsara, FJ Sim… - Cancer cell, 2010 - cell.com
Malignant astrocytic brain tumors are among the most lethal cancers. Quiescent and therapy-resistant
neural stem cell (NSC)-like cells in astrocytomas are likely to contribute to poor …

[PDF][PDF] Distinct neural stem cell populations give rise to disparate brain tumors in response to N-MYC

FJ Swartling, V Savov, AI Persson, J Chen, CS Hackett… - Cancer cell, 2012 - cell.com
The proto-oncogene MYCN is mis-expressed in various types of human brain tumors. To
clarify how developmental and regional differences influence transformation, we transduced …

Pleiotropic role for MYCN in medulloblastoma

FJ Swartling, MR Grimmer, CS Hackett… - Genes & …, 2010 - genesdev.cshlp.org
Medulloblastoma (MB) is the most common malignant brain tumor of childhood. Sonic
Hedgehog (SHH) signaling drives a minority of MB, correlating with desmoplastic pathology and …

[PDF][PDF] Combined MYC and P53 defects emerge at medulloblastoma relapse and define rapidly progressive, therapeutically targetable disease

…, TS Jacques, B Pizer, S Bailey, FJ Swartling… - Cancer cell, 2015 - cell.com
We undertook a comprehensive clinical and biological investigation of serial medulloblastoma
biopsies obtained at diagnosis and relapse. Combined MYC family amplifications and …

Medulloblastomics revisited: biological and clinical insights from thousands of patients

V Hovestadt, O Ayrault, FJ Swartling… - Nature Reviews …, 2020 - nature.com
Medulloblastoma, a malignant brain tumour primarily diagnosed during childhood, has
recently been the focus of intensive molecular profiling efforts, profoundly advancing our …

[HTML][HTML] Deep immune profiling reveals targetable mechanisms of immune evasion in immune checkpoint inhibitor-refractory glioblastoma

…, CE Brown, PR Walker, FJ Swartling… - … for immunotherapy of …, 2021 - ncbi.nlm.nih.gov
Background Glioblastoma (GBM) is refractory to immune checkpoint inhibitor (ICI) therapy.
We sought to determine to what extent this immune evasion is due to intrinsic properties of the …

[HTML][HTML] Combined BET bromodomain and CDK2 inhibition in MYC-driven medulloblastoma

…, WA Weiss, YJ Cho, H Weishaupt, FJ Swartling - Oncogene, 2018 - nature.com
Medulloblastoma (MB) is the most common malignant brain tumor in children. MYC genes
are frequently amplified and correlate with poor prognosis in MB. BET bromodomains …

Cyclic GMP-dependent protein kinase II inhibits cell proliferation, Sox9 expression and Akt phosphorylation in human glioma cell lines

FJ Swartling, M Ferletta, M Kastemar, WA Weiss… - Oncogene, 2009 - nature.com
Earlier we used a glioma model to identify loci in the mouse genome, which were repeatedly
targeted by platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF)-containing Moloney murine leukemia …

[PDF][PDF] A patient-derived cell atlas informs precision targeting of glioblastoma

…, B Lundgren, MM Frigault, DP Lane, FJ Swartling… - Cell reports, 2020 - cell.com
Glioblastoma (GBM) is a malignant brain tumor with few therapeutic options. The disease
presents with a complex spectrum of genomic aberrations, but the pharmacological …
