Retinoblastoma (Rb) is a rare form of cancer that rapidly develops from the immature cells of a retina, [2] the light-detecting tissue of the eye. [3] It is the most common primary malignant intraocular cancer in children, and 80% of retinoblastoma cases are first detected in those under 3 years old.
In most cases pineal TRb is diagnosed before the age of 5, but after the diagnosis of retinoblastoma. Non-pineal TRb, however, is often diagnosed simultaneous with retinoblastoma. Prognosis of patients with trilateral retinoblastoma is dismal, only a few patients have survived more than 5 years after diagnosis; all survivors were diagnosed with ...

The protein encoded by this gene is similar in sequence and possibly function to the product of the retinoblastoma 1 gene.The RB1 gene product is a tumor suppressor protein that appears to be involved in cell cycle regulation, as it is phosphorylated in the S to M phase transition and is dephosphorylated in the G1 phase of the cell cycle.
In non-inherited retinoblastoma, instead two mutations, or "hits", had to take place before a tumor could develop, explaining the later onset. It was later found that carcinogenesis (the development of cancer) depended both on the mutation of proto-oncogenes (genes that stimulate cell proliferation ) and on the inactivation of tumor suppressor ...
An eye neoplasm is a tumor of the eye. [1] A rare type of tumor, [2] eye neoplasms can affect all parts of the eye, and can either be benign or malignant (), in which case it is known as eye cancer. [3]
Retinoblastoma is a rare form of eye neoplasm (found in the retina) that is mostly found in children, being the most common intraocular malignancy of infancy and childhood. The incidence is of one case per every 15,000 to 20,000 live births, and some of the most common symptoms of this disease are leukocoria and strabismus, iris rubeosis ...
