Glioma is a type of tumor that originates in the brain or spine and is derived from glial cells, which are supportive cells within the central nervous system. These tumors can vary in severity and aggressiveness, with the most common and malignant form being glioblastoma. Research in glioma focuses on understanding the genetic and molecular mechanisms underlying tumor development, identifying potential therapeutic targets, and improving treatment strategies such as surgery, radiation therapy, and chemotherapy. Additionally, researchers are exploring novel approaches like immunotherapy and precision medicine to better personalize treatment for patients with glioma.
