Abstract excerpt

OBJECTIVE: To determine whether the expression of platelet derived growth factor alpha receptor (PDGFRalpha) in low grade astrocytomas and oligoastrocytomas is associated with survival. METHODS: Formalin fixed and paraffin embedded tumour samples of 40 consecutive patients with supratentorial diffuse astrocytomas and oligoastrocytomas of WHO grade 2, resected between 1986 and 1993, were used for...
