Genetic aberrations in sporadic and neurofibromatosis 2 (NF2)-associated schwannomas studied by comparative genomic hybridization (CGH).

abstract：:Despite a body of evidence showing that various neurotrophic factors support the survival of nerve cells and stimulate axonal outgrowth, doubt remains about their optimal site of application as well as the more compelling question of what clinical benefit, if any, they would confer.
