Microsatellite instability in pediatric high grade glioma is associated with genomic profile and differential target gene inactivation.

High grade gliomas (HGG) are one of the leading causes of cancer-related deaths in children, and there is increasing evidence that pediatric HGG may harbor distinct molecular characteristics compared to adult tumors. We have sought to clarify the role of microsatellite instability (MSI) in pediatric...
