Excited to see our study published in the October issue of Nature Genetics! 🎉 nature.com/articles/s41588-0… We characterized the chromatin landscapes across medulloblastoma (MB) subgroups and identified KDM2B as a selective dependency in Group 3/4 tumors. 1/5

Ependymoma, the third most common childhood brain tumor, has seen little therapeutic progress in 30+ years. New findings reveal how the ZFTA–RELA fusion protein drives tumor formation via condensates. ow.ly/fg4r50WMPZJ

A deeper understanding of how cells organize themselves is changing the way we think about neurological diseases. At St. Jude, researchers are studying biomolecular condensates—droplets that organize proteins, RNA and DNA—to uncover new treatment strategies.

New research reveals how ELP1 germline deficiency predisposes children to SHH-medulloblastoma and identifies a promising targeted therapy: MDM2 inhibitors. These findings may form the basis for adding MDM2 inhibition to clinical trials for SHH-medulloblastoma.

Share this post to raise awareness for kids with brain tumors and donate today to support pediatric brain tumor research! 🎗️ Brain tumors are the deadliest form of childhood cancer in the United States, accounting for a third of all pediatric cancer deaths each year. Each of us can make a difference for children battling brain tumors by spreading awareness and working to fund groundbreaking research happening right now. Read the facts you need to know about pediatric brain tumors and how you can help kids> alexslemonade.org/blog/eight…

Today is #WorldCancerDay, and St. Jude is as committed as ever to fighting childhood cancer on all fronts. Danny Thomas said, “No child should die in the dawn of life.”

Thrilled to share our recent work published in @NatureGenet, where we uncover how ZIC1 is regulated by distinct genetic and epigenetic mechanisms in SHH vs. Group 4 medulloblastoma—revealing it as a context-dependent driver. Huge thanks to the collaboration between Taylor, @drpaulnorthcott, and Huang labs. tinyurl.com/2c3jnhn2 @SJCENOS @StJudeResearch

When St. Jude opened in 1962, childhood cancer was largely considered incurable. Since then, St. Jude has helped push the overall survival rate from 20% to more than 80%, and we won't stop until no child dies from cancer. But we can't do it without you!

NCI-supported scientists @bcmhouston and @StJudeResearch recently found that an epigenetic modification involving serotonin (a substance that nerves use to send messages to one another) may drive the growth of a rare #BrainTumor in children. go.nih.gov/1YKLXv2 #BTSM
