Recent advances in the molecular genetics of primary gliomas.

Abstract excerpt

Primary brain tumors, particularly glioblastomas, remain a challenge for oncology. Uncontrolled cellular proliferation, lack of apoptosis, invasion, and angiogenesis are among the biologic processes that render these tumors both aggressive and difficult to treat. An understanding of the genetics and molecular events regulating these aggressive tumors is beginning to emerge, partly because of recent knowledge in...
