Abstract:Ependymoma (EPN) is an aggressive pediatric tumor that occurs throughout the central nervous system. The two most aggressive molecular subgroups of EPN are the supratentorial ZFTA-fusion associated group (ST-EPN-ZFTA) and the posterior fossa group A (PF-EPN-A). Although the molecular characteristics underlying the tumorigenesis of these subgroups have been extensively studied, these tumors remain difficult to treat. Hence, innovative therapeutic approaches are urgently needed. Here, we used genome-wide chromos… 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.
