Couldwell, William T.; Schmidt, Richard H.; Salzman, Karen L.; Chin, Steven S. | Glioblastoma multiforme of the pineal region | Glioblastoma multiforme (GBMs) tumors are exceedingly rare tumors in the pineal region. We present three cases in which patients presented with a pineal/posterior third ventricular region mass and review all the previously reported cases in the literature. Pineal region GBM seems to be a very aggre... | Glioblastoma multiforme; Hydrocephalus; Leptomeningeal dissemination; Malignant glioma; Perinaud's syndrome; Pineal region; Spinal metastases | 2006 |

Couldwell, William T.; Gillespie, David L.; Jensen, Randy L. | Identification of hypoxia-induced genes in a malignant glioma cell line (U-251) by cDNA microarray analysis | Overcoming the metabolic restrictions of hypoxia may allow the progression of lower-grade tumors to glioblastoma multiforme. Our findings of up-regulation of HIF-1α and its downstream targets VEGF, GLUT-1, and CAIX in higher-grade gliomas support this hypothesis. We compared the gene expression pro... | Glioblastoma multiforme; U-251; Hypoxia; Microarray analysis; Brain tumor; Depp; Astrocytoma | 2007 |
