โฆ Synopsis
BACKGROUND. Primary central nervous system malignant lymphoma (PCNSL) has been regarded as a rare neoplasm. Recently, however, its incidence has been rapidly increasing. Despite active clinical trials, its clinical and biologic features remain unknown and there has been no effective treatment or prognostic factor.
The current study attempted to elucidate telomerase activity and expression of the telomere-related RNA of PCNSL as novel prognostic factors.
