Identification of key genes and pathways associated with resting mast cells in meningioma

Abstract Background To identify candidate key genes and pathways related to resting mast cells in meningioma and the underlying molecular mechanisms of meningioma. Methods Gene expression profiles of the used microarray datasets were obtained from the Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) database. GO and K...
