The PTEN gene, recently identified on chromosome 10q23, has been proposed to be a candidate tumor suppressor gene inactivated in multiple cancers including glial tumors. We investigated 47 glioblastomas (GBM), 14 anaplastic astrocytomas (AA), 6 non-pilocytic low-grade astrocytomas (LGA), 21 low-grad
The PTEN (MMAC1/TEP1) tumor suppressor gene was recently isolated and mapped to human chromosome band 10q23. Homozygous deletions and mutations of PTEN were observed in cell lines and sporadic cancers of the breast, kidney, and central nervous system. Germline mutations in PTEN were recently found i
