Computer simulation for understanding brain cancer growth

A new, freely available computer platform creates a 3D model that brings together the macroscopic scale of tissue with the microscopic scale of individual cells. This allows the platform to realistically model brain cancer's mechanobiology while maintaining resolution power.

Common Seizure Drug Blocks Deadly Brain Cancer Growth

Researchers discovered a promising new avenue for treating glioblastoma, a deadly brain cancer. The study found that these tumors restructure connections in surrounding brain tissue, leading to cognitive decline. The team discovered that the drug gabapentin, commonly used to prevent seizures, could inhibit this activity in mice with glioblastoma.

Brain Cancer Linked to Tissue Healing

Study reports brain tumors may arise when damaged brain tissue does not heal correctly. Researchers say some glioblastoma form when the normal healing process gets derailed by mutations. This process could begin many years before patients become symptomatic of brain cancer.
