Researchers at King s College London Institute of Psychiatry, Psychology, & Neuroscience, in collaboration with King s College Hospital NHS Foundation Trust, have found small clusters of cells in the brain that identify locations where tumours could become malignant.
The study, which has been published in
Neuro-Oncology Advances today, analysed pieces of living human brain tissue from 20 people undergoing brain tumour surgery at King s College Hospital, the largest neuro-oncology centre in Europe. The researchers found groups of tumour cells clustered around blood vessels and believe that these sites could be the seedbeds for malignant progression, the process by which a tumour becomes a fast growing and uncontrolled cancer.
