H3.3K27M Mutation Controls Cell Growth and Resistance to Therapies in Pediatric Glioma Cell Lines
5 Nov 2021
Abstract excerpt
High-grade gliomas represent the most lethal class of pediatric tumors, and their resistance to both radio- and chemotherapy is associated with a poor prognosis. Recurrent mutations affecting histone genes drive the tumorigenesis of some pediatric high-grade gliomas, and H3K27M mutations are notably characteristic of a subtype of gliomas called DMG (Diffuse Midline Gliomas). This dominant negative mutation...
