Intratumoral immunosuppression profiles in 11q-deleted neuroblastomas provide new potential therapeutic targets
2021
In this issue, Coronado et al. attempt to improve our understanding of the factors affecting the response to immunotherapy in a large subset of high‐risk neuroblastoma with hemizygous deletion of chromosome 11q. By using several computational approaches, the authors study potential transcriptional and post‐transcriptional pathways that may affect the response to immunotherapy and further be leveraged therapeutically in a biomarker‐directed fashion.
Jacobsen syndrome and neonatal bleeding: report on two unrelated patients
2021
Abstract Introduction In 1973, Petrea Jacobsen described the first patient showing dysmorphic features, developmental delay and congenital heart disease (atrial and ventricular septal defect) associated to a 11q deletion, inherited from the father. Since then, more than 200 patients have been reported, and the chromosomal critical region responsible for this contiguous gene disorder has been identified. Patients’ presentation We report on two unrelated newborns observed in Italy affected by Jacobsen syndrome (JBS, also known as 11q23 deletion). Both patients presented prenatal and postnatal bleeding, growth and developmental delay, craniofacial dysmorphisms, multiple congenital anomalies, a…
Integración de la genómica en la modelización de los tumores neuroblásticos = Integration of genomics in neuroblastic tumors modeling
2015
*Introducción: El neuroblastoma es un tumor maligno embrionario del sistema nervioso simpático con una gran heterogeneidad en la presentación clínica, morfológica y genética y en otras características biológicas. La estratificación de grupos de riesgo pretratamiento se basa en los siguientes factores: edad, estadio, histopatológica del tumor, estado del oncogén MYCN, integridad del brazo cromosómico 11q y ploidía. Por otra parte, los cambios numéricos y estructurales detectados en el perfil genético se han incluido recientemente en la estratificación terapéutica de los pacientes con bajo riesgo a recaer o morir. El amplio espectro clínico de la enfermedad va desde pacientes con neuroblastom…
