“…The age, gender, extent of resection, radiotherapy, chemotherapy, and histological grade, tumor size and range have been identified as potential contributors to the prognosis of glioma patients (Hayashi et al ., 2017; Guo et al ., 2019). Moreover, many genetic polymorphisms have been identified to be associated with the susceptibility to gliomas and as well as the prognosis of glioma patients (Li et al ., 2013; Du et al ., 2014; Jin et al ., 2016). Therefore, it is critical to identify new glioma therapeutic targets and new diagnostic and prognostic biomarkers.…”
