Research -02-07-06 Breakthrough in Brain Cancer Research (Brightsurf.com) "In their quest to find and exploit vulnerabilities in the natural armor that protects malignant brain tumors from destruction, researchers have found a way to decrease the cells resistance to therapies that are designed to trigger cell death. The findings resulted from laboratory experiments conducted at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center’s Maxine Dunitz Neurosurgical Institute and are based on the manipulation of a series of intricate biochemical events taking place within brain tumor cells." 02-06 Brain Cancer (OncologyChannel.com) "There are two types of brain tumors: primary brain tumors that originate in the brain and metastatic (secondary) brain tumors that originate from cancer cells that have migrated from other parts of the body." "Aside from a known association with exposure to vinyl chloride, there are no known chemical or environmental agents that lead to the development of brain tumors." 02-06 Brain Cancer Basics and Treatments (OncoLink.org) "It is important to understand the difference between primary brain tumors and brain metastases because they are treated differently. I occasionally hear the media refer to a person who died of lung cancer and brain cancer, when, in actuality, it was lung cancer that had metastasized to the brain." 02-06
