Similar to previous reports21,22, the levels of expression of FOXM1 and β-catenin (CTNNB1) mRNAs were significantly higher in 49 of GBM tissues than in 8 of normal tissues, and public datasets, Oncopression and REMBRANDT, showed similar results of FOXM1 and β-catenin (CTNNB1) expression level (Fig. 1A,B). Here, CTNNB1 is linked to glioblastoma.
