Question: Why are most brain tumors gliomas.?
Are there more glial cells in the brain than neurons.? Help.....Health Question & Answer
Answers:
Hi Tigre. Cancer develops in cells that multiply (replicate themselves). Consequently, cancer rarely develops in the adult brain in the neurons, because the neurons are no longer capable of multiplying.
However, the glial cells in the brain are constantly multiplying and replacing themselves. Therefore, they can develop into a cancer cell.
