Of the eight SNPs identified, PPARα (rs6008197), PPARγ (rs13306747), and PPARδ (rs3734254) were most significantly associated with long-term changes in general intellectual functioning in medulloblastoma survivors.
Importantly, pharmacological blockade of PPARγ and/or Rb inactivation inhibits CGNP proliferation, drives medulloblastoma cell death and extends survival of medulloblastoma-bearing animals in vivo.
