Abstract excerpt
Although both spatial and temporal heterogeneity confound the description of the genetic events underlying glioma tumorigenesis, it is becoming evident that chromosome 17 loss and p53 inactivating mutations are probably involved early in the pathway of tumorigenesis of some, but not all, astrocyt...
