Validation of a methylation-based signature for subventricular zone involvement in glioblastoma

ConclusionHerein, we validated the specific epigenetic signature in GBM in the vicinity of the SVZ and highlighted the importance of methylation of a part of the LRBA/MAB21L2 gene locus. Whether SVZM can replace MRI-based SVZ assignment as a prognostic and diagnostic tool will require prospective studies of large, homogeneous cohorts.
