- Authors
Hauptman, Jason S.
- Abstract
The article presents several medical studies analyzing the several medical phenomena including, various subtypes of medulloblastomas, and the significance of cholinergic neuron in the nucleus accumbens. It is reported that, medulloblastomas tumors are composed of groups of tumors with different molecular origins so they are not uniform tumors. It is reported that, medulloblastomas tumors are the most common type of malignant brain tumors found in children. It is reported that, cholinergic neurons within the nucleus accumbens have contradictory roles in the modulation of drug addiction.
