## Abstract ## BACKGROUND Astrocytic tumors are the most common tumors of the central nervous system. The mechanisms of genetic change of astrocytic tumors have not been understood completely. Recently, survivin has been identified as a member of the inhibitorβofβapoptosis family. Survivin express
Tumor suppressor genes encode proteins involved in growth regulation in differentiating and proliferating cells. Previous work from our laboratory has demonstrated that the neurofibromatosis 1 (NF1) tumor suppressor gene is dramatically upregulated in astrocytes stimulated with dibutyryl cyclic AMP
