More Details: |
Clinical studies have suggested a reduced incidence of brain tumors, including optic gliomas, in children with asthma. Here, in a mouse model of Neurofibromatosis type 1 associated low grade optic glioma, the authors show that experimental asthma induction decreases glioma formation and growth, resulting from T cell-dependent inhibition of microglia-mediated tumor support. |
