Glioma models: new GEMMs add "class" with genomic and expression correlations
Abstract
Malignant gliomas are characterized by accumulated aberrations affecting TP53, PTEN, and RB1 signaling. In this issue, Chow et al. discover that combinatorial loss of these tumor suppressors in mice induces gliomas with unexpected degrees of similarity to human pathologic, genomic, and expression subclasses recently revealed by large-scale genomic studies.
