Genetic causes of glioma: new leads in the labyrinth.

Current opinion in oncology - 1 Nov 2011

Melin Beatrice

Abstract excerpt

PURPOSE OF REVIEW: A small percentage of gliomas are caused by inheritance in cancer syndromes but there is also a general familial aggregation of glioma. Recently, low penetrant genes associated with glioma risk have been identified. RECENT FINDINGS: Seven independent chromosomal loci have robustly been associated with glioma risk: 5p15.33 (rs2736100, TERT), 8q24.21 (rs4295627, CCDC26), 9p21.3 (rs4977756,...
