An atypical teratoid rhabdoid tumor (ATRT) is a rare, fast-growing tumor that is malignant (cancerous) and develops in the brain and spinal cord. This condition is usually seen in children under age 3, but it can also occur in older children and into adulthood.Atypical teratoid rhabdoid tumors (ATRT) are rare, aggressive tumors of the central nervous system. They occur primarily in the cerebellum (the part of the brain that controls movement and balance) and the brain stem (the part of the brain that controls basic body functions). ATRT represents 1 to 2 percent of childhood brain tumors.Atypical teratoid/rhabdoid tumor (AT/RT) is a rare intracranial tumor occurring predominantly in young children. The prognosis is poor, and no effective treatment is currently available. To develop novel effective therapies, there is a need for experimental models for AT/RT. In this research, we established a cell line from a patient's AT/RT ...In summary, CHLA-02 and CHLA-05 may represent two different subtypes of ATRT based on their gene expression profiles. AFP, MSLN, MUC16, OPN, and MT1-MMP/MMP14 may serve as biomarkers for human malignant rhabdoid tumor detection and therapeutic targets. Due to their high MT1-MMP and other MMP expression levels, ATRT cells may be highly invasive.Currently an internationally accepted consensus treatment for relapsed/refractory ATRT is missing. Little is known about relapse patterns, prognostic factors and outcome.
