abstract = {Recent advances in genomic technologies have allowed for
tremendous progress in our understanding of the biology
underlying medulloblastoma, a malignant childhood brain
tumor. Consensus molecular subgroups have been put forth by
the pediatric neuro-oncology community and next-generation
genomic studies have led to an improved description of
driver genes and pathways somatically altered in these
subgroups. In contrast to the impressive pace at which
advances have been made at the level of the medulloblastoma
genome, comparable studies of the epigenome have lagged
behind. Complementary data yielded from genomic sequencing
and copy number profiling have verified frequent targeting
of chromatin modifiers in medulloblastoma, highly suggestive
of prominent epigenetic deregulation in the disease. Past
studies of DNA methylation-dependent gene silencing and
microRNA expression analyses further support the concept of
medulloblastoma as an epigenetic disease. In this Review, we
aim to summarize the key findings of past reports pertaining
to medulloblastoma epigenetics as well as recent and ongoing
genomic efforts linking somatic alterations of the genome
with inferred deregulation of the epigenome. In addition, we
predict what is on the horizon for medulloblastoma
epigenetics and how aberrant changes in the medulloblastoma
epigenome might serve as an attractive target for future
therapies.},
