Is loss of heterozygosity 1p36 and 19q13 a prognostic factor for overall survival in patients with diffuse WHO grade 2 gliomas treated without chemotherapy?
The presence of LOH on either 1p36 or 19q13, and in particular codeletion of both loci is a strong, nontreatment-related, prognostic factor for overall survival in patients with diffusely infiltrating WHO grade 2 gliomas.
Anisomycin induces glioma cell death via down-regulation of PP2A catalytic subunit. The regulation of PP2A/C exression by anisomycin provides a clue to further study on its role in glioma therapy.
