Gene expression analysis of glioblastomas identifies the major molecular basis for the prognostic benefit of younger age

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Glioblastomas are the most common primary brain tumour in adults. While the prognosis for patients is poor, gene expression profiling has detected signatures that can sub-classify GBMs relative to histopathology and clinical variables. One category of GBM defined by a gene expression signature is termed ProNeural (PN), and has substantially longer patient survival relative to other gene...
