Abstract excerpt
PURPOSE: IDH1/2-mutant gliomas harbor a distinct glioma-CpG island methylation phenotype (G-CIMP) that may promote the initiation and progression of secondary pathway gliomas by silencing tumor-suppressive genes. The potential role of tumor-suppressive microRNAs (miRNA; miR) in this process is not understood. EXPERIMENTAL DESIGN: To identify potential tumor-suppressive miRNA hypermethylated in glioma, the...
