TL;DR: The results identify a strong candidate tumour suppressor gene at chromosome 10q23.3, whose loss of function appears to be associated with the oncogenesis of multiple human cancers.
Journal ArticleDOI
Identification of a novel gene product, RIG, that is down-regulated in human glioblastoma
TL;DR: The differential expression pattern, tissue distribution and chromosomal location of RIG suggests it serves as a molecular marker for or may play a role in the malignant progression of GBMs.
