Pediatric pineal germinomas: Epigenetic and genomic approach (methylation profiling)


ABSTRACT: We identify and correlate chromosomal alterations, methylation patterns and gene expression in pediatric pineal germinomas. Due the low incidence of pineal germinoma, there is insufficient molecular data related to chromosomal alterations, methylation patterns and genetic expression that may help understand the changes that influence tumor development. In addition, at present, the diagnosis of this tumor in childhood is challenging because of its location and cellular origin, which is why our aim was to understand and to identify possible molecular biomarkers to provide information on the diagnosis and tumor development. Tumor biopsies were obtained from pediatric patients of 0 to 16 years of age, they were subsequently evaluated by histopathological analysis. Sample selection was based on the percentage of tumor cells present in the tumor samples, processing the samples containing the lowest 70% and 80% tumor cells, respectively.
