<i>Maternally Expressed Gene 3</i>, an Imprinted Noncoding RNA Gene, Is Associated with Meningioma Pathogenesis and Progression
24 Feb 2010
Abstract excerpt
Meningiomas are common tumors, representing 15% to 25% of all central nervous system tumors. NF2 gene inactivation on chromosome 22 has been shown as an early event in tumorigenesis; however, few factors underlying tumor growth and progression have been identified. The chromosomal abnormalities of 14q32 are often associated with meningioma pathogenesis and progression; therefore, it has been proposed that an as...
