Summary

Tumors are abnormal masses of tissue that form when cells divide uncontrollably. In neurodegeneration research, brain tumors (gliomas, meningiomas) and their molecular pathways inform understanding of cell survival, proliferation, and death mechanisms. Shared pathways between tumorigenesis and neurodegeneration include p53 signaling, Wnt/beta-catenin, PI3K/AKT/mTOR, and autophagy.
