Genetic clue to glioma brain cancer growth - Reported by the BBC. Scientists have pinpointed a mutated gene as key to the development of some types of glioma brain tumour. The mutation leads to hugely increased levels of a chemical in the brain, which seems to feed the cancer. The Nature study (Published online 19th Nov. 2009) suggests that detecting higher levels of the chemical could provide ...

Recent research has linked mutations in the metabolic enzyme IDH1 to glioma and other cancers. 2 Approximately 70 percent of gliomas are known to have the IDH1 mutation. A glioma is a type of cancer that starts in the brain or spine. It is called a glioma because it arises from glial cells. High grade gliomas currently cannot be cured and the prognosis ...
