PTCH1 and medulloblastoma: Specifically, we have investigated the effects of intestinal inflammatory processes (i) on neuroinflammation and hippocampal neurogenesis in C57BL/6 mice and (ii) on tumorigenesis in the Patched1 heterozygous mice (Ptch1+/−/C57BL/6), predisposed to the development of medulloblastoma (MB), a cerebellar tumor, representing the most common malignant pediatric brain cancer [13,14].
