Here, we show that paracrine signals driven by mutant β-catenin in WNT-medulloblastoma, an essentially curable form of the disease, induce an aberrant fenestrated vasculature that permits the accumulation of high levels of intra-tumoral chemotherapy and a robust therapeutic response.

These findings provide a strong biological basis to support (1) the idiosyncratic clinical behavior of Wnt/Wg-active medulloblastomas, and (2) the development of beta-catenin status as an independent marker for therapeutic stratification in this disease.
