Medulloblastoma is a malignant brain tumor that occurs predominantly in children. Current risk stratification based on clinical parameters is inadequate for accurate prognostication. MicroRNA expression is known to be deregulated in various cancers and has been found to be useful in predicting tumor behavior. In order to get a better understanding of medulloblastoma biology, miRNA profiling of medulloblastomas was carried out in parallel with expression profiling of protein-coding genes.
