Abstract
The central nervous system (CNS) is composed of astrocytes (50%), oligodendrocytes (40%), microglia (5%) and ependymal cells (5%), which provide structural and functional support to neurons. In particular glial tumors (glioma or glioblastoma) are among the most common neoplasms of the CNS and adult arise from astrocytes, oligodendrocytes and their precursors.
