We have previously shown that PATZ1 is overexpressed in both adult and pediatric GBM compared to normal glial cells (Guadagno et al., 2017; Passariello et al., 2019), and that it is specifically expressed in GSCs, where it is associated with the proneural phenotype (Guadagno et al., 2017). This evidence concerns the gene PATZ1 and glioblastoma.
