Oligodendrocyte lineage genes ( <i>OLIG</i> ) as molecular markers for human glial brain tumors

Abstract excerpt

The most common primary tumors of the human brain are thought to be of glial cell origin. However, glial cell neoplasms cannot be fully classified by cellular morphology or with conventional markers for astrocytes, oligodendrocytes, or their progenitors. Recent insights into central nervous system tumorigenesis suggest that novel molecular markers might be found among factors that have roles in glial development....
