| Research Abstract |
Glioblastoma, anaplastic glioma(Grade III), low grade glioma, primary central nervous
system lymphoma and normal brain samples were studied (total of 100 samples) using cDNA microarray technology. The phylogenetic tree resulting from the hierarchical clustering algorithm have employed. Fifty genes were selected as specific molecular targeted genes in glioblastoma and primary central nervous system lymphoma.
In conclusion, accumulation of data with respect to expression profiles of malignant brain tumor specimens, clinico-pathological data, susceptibility to treatment, and outcome will bring us information for identifying optimized therapeutic modalities for individual patients and novel therapeutic targets.
