Abstract:Background: Imagining ways to prevent or treat glioblastoma (GBM) have been hindered by a lack of understanding of its pathogenesis. Although PDGF-AA overexpression may be an early event, critical details of the core biology are lacking. Existing PDGF-driven models replicate its microscopic appearance but not the genomic architecture characteristic of the human disease.Here we report a new model of GBM that overcomes this barrier to authenticity. Methods:Using a method developed to study neural stem cells, we … Show more
