Central nervous system atypical teratoid/rhabdoid tumor(CNS rhabdoid tumor) is a rare malignancy of uncertain origin. It typically occurs in infants and young children and comprises only a small fraction of pediatrics CNS malignancies. The tumor contains a large spindled cell component as classical rhabdoid morphology and focal areas resembling primitive neuroectodermal tumor. The tumor is defined histopathologically by the presence...

Anti-angiogenesis and Anti-metastasis Characteristics of the Novel Tumor Suppressor Gene PTEN
Pyoung Han Hwang, Ho Keun Yi, Myoung Hee Han, Dae Yeol Lee, Dae Yeol Lee, Jung Soo Kim
Clin Exp Pediatr. 2001;44(6):654-663.   Published online June 15, 2001
Purpose : The tumor suppressor gene PTEN/MMAC1 is mutated in a variety of advanced and metastatic cancers, strongly suggesting that PTEN/MMAC1 alterations may be involved in tumor progression and the formation of metastases. However, the roles of PTEN in tumor growth and metastasis and its functional mechanisms are not fully understood. We evaluated the tumor suppressor function of PTEN/MMAC1 gene...
Apolipoprotein E Polymorphism and Plasma Lipid Levels in Obese Children
Myoung Hee Han, Sun Jun Kim
Clin Exp Pediatr. 2000;43(5):679-685.   Published online May 15, 2000
Purpose : The increased prevalence of dyslipoproteinemia in obese children probably contributes to the high risk of cardiovascular disease associated with being overweight. The genetic makeup is possible one of the factors that influence the impact of obesity on lipid metabolism. A relation between apolipoprotein E(Apo E) polymorphism and lipid metabolism has been convincingly demonstrated in large population. The purpose...
