DNA Methylation Landscape of Astrocytoma : Role of Fibromodulin (FMOD), a Hypomethylated and Upregulated Gene, in Glioblastoma Cell Migration
(2018-08-30)Astrocytoma is defined as the neoplasia of astrocytes, the most abundant non-neuronal glial cells in brain. According to the WHO classification, the different grades of astrocytoma are- gradeI/pilocytic astrocytoma (benign ... -
Elucidating Deregulated Novel Pathways in Glioma through Genetic and Epigenetic Approaches
Malignancy of glial cells is termed as glioma. Gliomas comprise of thirty percent of all tumors of the central nervous system (CNS) and eighty percent of malignant brain tumors (Goodenberger and Jenkins, 2012). Astrocytoma, ... -
Proteomic Approaches to Study Glioma Development, Progression and Therapy
(2018-04-02)Astrocytoma, the tumor of astrocytic origin, accounts for about 60 % of the primary brain tumors. As per World Health Organization grading system, astrocytoma is classified as circumscribed astrocytoma (Grade I; pilocytic ... -
Role of DNA Methylation in Glioblastoma Development
(2018-04-11)Glioblastoma (GBM) is the most common and malignant of the glial tumors. These tumors may develop from lower-grade astrocytomas (diffuse astrocytoma; grade II or anaplastic astrocytoma; grade III) through a progressive ...
