Molecular Genetics of Glioblastomas

Mar 13, 2017 by in NEUROLOGICAL IMAGING Comments Off on Molecular Genetics of Glioblastomas

Despite comprehensive therapy, which includes surgery, radiotherapy, and chemotherapy, the prognosis of glioblastoma multiforme is very poor. Diagnosed individuals present an average of 12 to 18 months of life. This article…

Understanding Genetics in Neuroimaging

Mar 13, 2017 by in NEUROLOGICAL IMAGING Comments Off on Understanding Genetics in Neuroimaging

Gene expression is a process of DNA sequence reading into protein synthesis. In cases of problems in DNA repair/apoptosis mechanisms, cells accumulate genomic abnormalities and pass them through generations of…
