Results
Transcriptomic differences partly reflect the underlying genomic alterations
Unsupervised analysis consistently distinguishes the two groups of gliomas
Oligodendrogliomas with 1p19q codeletion express specific subsets of neuronal genes
Most characteristic genes associated with oligodendrogliomas with 1p19q codeletion
