Abstract excerpt
AIMS: Combined deletion of the whole chromosomal arms 1p and 19q is a frequent event in oligodendroglial tumours. Recent identification of recurrent mutations in CIC on 19q and FUBP1 on 1p and their mutational patterns suggest a loss of function of the respective proteins. Surprisingly, oligoastrocytomas harbouring identical genetic characteristics regarding 1p/19q codeletion and frequent IDH1/2 mutations have...
