Publications
Electromagnetic field hazards involving adjustable shunt valves in hydrocephalusThomas Schneider
Department of Neurosurgery, and Institute of Fundamental Electrical Engineering and Electromagnetic Compatibility, Otto von Guericke University, Magdeburg, Germany
J Neurosurg 96:331-4. 2002..Because of increasing "electromagnetic smog" (for example, that generated by cellular phones), these valves are often exposed to electromagnetic fields...
Increased concentrations of transforming growth factor beta1 and beta2 in the plasma of patients with glioblastomaThomas Schneider
Department of Neurosurgery, Otto von Guericke University, Leipziger Strasse 44, D 39120, Magdeburg, Germany
J Neurooncol 79:61-5. 2006..lt;6 ng/ml clearly correlates with a longer survival time. In conclusion, this study suggests that glioblastoma does secret TGF-beta2 in vivo and that TGF-beta2 may play an important role in glioblastoma patients...
Gliomas in adultsThomas Schneider
Klinik für Neurochirurgie, Otto von Guericke Universitat Magdeburg, Magdeburg, Germany
Dtsch Arztebl Int 107:799-807; quiz 808. 2010..An up-to-date account of basic knowledge in this area would thus seem desirable, as recent years have seen major developments both in the scientific understanding of these tumors and in clinical methods of diagnosis and treatment...
Cytotoxic effect of different statins and thiazolidinediones on malignant glioma cellsJorge Humberto Tapia-Pérez
Department of Neurosurgery, Otto von Guericke University Magdeburg, Magdeburg, Germany
Cancer Chemother Pharmacol 67:1193-201. 2011..Statins are inhibitors of the cholesterol pathway, while thiazolidinediones are peroxisomal proliferator activator receptor ? (PPAR) agonists. For both, a potent pro-apoptotic activity has been suggested...
Analysis of a single nucleotide polymorphism in codon 388 of the FGFR4 gene in malignant gliomasChristian Mawrin
Department of Neuropathology, Otto von Guericke University, Leipziger Strasse 44, D 39120 Magdeburg, Germany
Cancer Lett 239:239-45. 2006..U87 cells (Arg/Gly(388)) did not show higher invasion than U138 cells (Gly(388)). This suggests that the FGFR4 codon 388 status does not play a major role in malignant gliomas...
Different activation of mitogen-activated protein kinase and Akt signaling is associated with aggressive phenotype of human meningiomasChristian Mawrin
Department of Neuropathology, Otto von Guericke University, Magdeburg, Germany
Clin Cancer Res 11:4074-82. 2005....
The role of statins in neurosurgeryJorge Humberto Tapia-Pérez
Department of Neurosurgery, Otto von Guericke University, Magdeburg, Germany
Neurosurg Rev 33:259-70; discussion 270. 2010..Recent data in literature are discussed in this review. More trials in humans are urgently required to finally determine if statins could contribute to the current management of neurosurgical diseases...
Dual role of the mitochondrial protein frataxin in astrocytic tumorsElmar Kirches
Department of Neuropathology, Otto von Guericke University, Magdeburg, Germany
Lab Invest 91:1766-76. 2011..These data contrast to a general tumor suppressor function of FXN but suggest a dual, pro-proliferative but chemosensitizing role in astrocytic tumors...
Novel chromosomal aberrations in a recurrent malignant meningiomaAntje Friederike Pelz
Department of Human Genetics, Otto von Guericke University, Leipziger Strasse 44, D 39120 Magdeburg, Germany
Cancer Genet Cytogenet 174:48-53. 2007..High chromosomal complexity might be associated with a highly aggressive meningioma phenotype...
Assessment of tumor cell invasion factors in gliomatosis cerebriChristian Mawrin
Institut für Neuropathologie, Otto von Guericke University, Leipziger Strasse 44, D 39120 Magdeburg, Germany
J Neurooncol 73:109-15. 2005....
Brain tumor therapy by combined vaccination and antisense oligonucleotide delivery with nanoparticlesThomas Schneider
Department of Neurosurgery TS, AB, RF, Germany
J Neuroimmunol 195:21-7. 2008..In summary, nanoparticles are useful to deliver plasmids and antisense oligonucleotides to brain tumors. A combined immunization/gene delivery of TGF-beta antisense oligonucleotides may be a promising approach for brain tumor therapy...
Genotyping reveals a wide heterogeneity of Tropheryma whippleiWenjun Li
Unite des Rickettsies, IFR 48, CNRS UMR 6020, Faculte de Medecine, Universite de la Mediterranee, Marseille Cedex 05, France
Microbiology 154:521-7. 2008..whipplei strains that is apparently independent of geographical distribution and unrelated to bacterial pathogenicity. Genotyping in Whipple's disease may, however, be useful in epidemiological studies...
Continuous flow magnetic cell fractionation based on antigen expression levelThomas Schneider
Department of Biomedical Engineering, The Cleveland Clinic Foundation, 9500 Euclid Avenue, Cleveland, OH 44195, USA
