Genomic analyses of early responses to radiation in glioblastoma reveal new alterations at transcription, splicing, and translation levels

Abstract High-dose radiation is the main component of glioblastoma therapy. Unfortunately, radio-resistance is a common problem and a major contributor to tumor relapse. Understanding the molecular mechanisms driving response to radiation is critical for identifying regulatory routes that could be t...
