Introdução : O meduloblastoma é um tumor maligno, altamente agressivo e de rápido crescimento que surge no cerebelo ou no assoalho do quarto ventrículo e tronco encefálico, principalmente em crianças. Mesmo com os avanços na terapia, a morbidade e a mortalidade continuam sendo um grande desafio. Portanto, novos tratamentos são necessários para reduzir esses resultados.
Objetivo : Revisar a relação NRP1 (neuropilina 1) e meduloblastoma como potencial alvo terapêutico e, também, com sobrevida global.
Method: This is a narrative review carried out in the PubMed and Scielo databases. The search used the following keywords: “neuropilins, medulloblastoma, brain tumors, pediatrics”. The inclusion criteria were review articles, experimental studies, pre-clinical and clinical research, in English and Portuguese, and available in full text. The selected articles were analyzed based on the technologies covered, future perspectives and challenges mentioned, diseases mentioned and the central idea of the article.
Result: 30 articles were included.
Conclusion: Medulloblastomas have high transcriptional levels of neuropilin (NRP1) and their low levels are related to lower overall survival, especially in SHH. In this sense, NRP1 and its complex action system appear as a potential target for oncological therapies for brain tumors.
