Abstract
GBM may manifest rapidly de novo(primary GBM), or may develop slowly from grade II orgrade III astrocytomas (secondary GBM), suggesting thatthey are distinct disease entities that evolve throughdifferent genetic pathways.In recent genome-wide analyses, high rates of sponta-neous mutations in the gene encoding cytosolic NADP-dependent isocitrate dehydrogenase 1 (IDH1) have beenreported in diffuse gliomas including WHO grades II andIII astroglial and oligodendroglial lineages.
