Comprehensive genomic characterization defines human glioblastoma genes and core pathways

Roger E. McLendon, +233 more
- 23 Oct 2008 - 
TL;DR: The interim integrative analysis of DNA copy number, gene expression and DNA methylation aberrations in 206 glioblastomas reveals a link between MGMT promoter methylation and a hypermutator phenotype consequent to mismatch repair deficiency in treated gliobeasts, demonstrating that it can rapidly expand knowledge of the molecular basis of cancer.
Journal ArticleDOI

Identification of an Amplified, Highly Expressed Gene in a Human Glioma

TL;DR: A gene was identified that is amplified more than 50-fold in a malignant glioma, a member of a select group of cellular genes that are genetically altered in primary human tumors.
Journal ArticleDOI

Genetic and epigenetic inactivation of Kruppel-like factor 4 in medulloblastoma.

TL;DR: It is concluded that KLF4 is inactivated by either genetic or epigenetic mechanisms in a large subset of medulloblastomas and that it likely functions as a tumor suppressor gene in the pathogenesis of medULLoblastoma.
Journal Article

Monoclonal Antibody and F(ab′)2 Fragment Delivery to Tumor in Patients with Glioma: Comparison of Intracarotid and Intravenous Administration

TL;DR: Data indicate that i.c. administration of MAb 81C6 IgG2b and Mel-14 F(ab')2 fragments offers no delivery advantage to offset the small but finite risk involved in cannulation and injection of the internal carotid artery.
