Abstract:Young patients (< 40 years-old) with glioblastoma (GB) may carry IDH1/2 mutations or rarely, H3F3A/HIST1H3B mutations. Some instead harbor chromosome (chr) 7 gain, chr 10 loss, and EGFR amplification (amp). IDH1/2 mutations are associated with longer survival in contrast to H3F3A/HIST1H3B mutations. Novel reliable prognostic factors are needed in GB. Mitochondria (mt) are responsible for ATP production through oxidative phosphorylation. High mtDNA copy number (CN) has been associated with variable outcomes … Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
