Notch pathway mapped and linked to common pediatric brain tumour.

A new study by Johns Hopkins researchers links a well-known cell communication pathway called Notch to one of the most common brain tumours found in children.  Their study suggests the pathway’s involvement with a low-grade brain tumour called pilocytic astrocytoma, or PA.  The opensource study is published in the Journal of Neuropathology & Experimental Neurology.
