tumor location

Although brain cancer only accounts for 2% of all tumors, it has a poor prognosis, high mortality and high recurrence rate. Brain cancer can be divided into primary brain cancer and secondary brain cancer. According to the location of the cancer, brain cancer can also be divided into: brain glioma, pituitary adenoma, schwannoma, craniopharyngioma, meningioma and so on. Glioma is the most common primary brain tumor, accounting for about 1/3 of all brain tumors. At present, brain cancer lacks precision targeted therapeutic drugs, and there is still a great clinical demand that has not been met. With the continuous development of high-throughput screening technology, it may be able to help develop effective anti-brain cancer drugs by screening compounds targeting PKC, PD-1, c-Met, PARP, etc targets.

MCE designs a unique collection of 2,113 small molecules with definite or potential anti-brain cancer activity, which is an important tool for studying the pathological mechanism of brain cancer and developing drugs for brain cancer.
