Stem Cell Marker Nestin and c-Jun NH2-Terminal Kinases in Tumor and Peritumor Areas of Glioblastoma Multiforme: Possible Prognostic Implications
1 Dec 2007
Abstract excerpt
PURPOSE: It has been hypothesized that brain tumors are derived from stem cell or transiently dividing precursor transformation. Furthermore, c-Jun NH(2)-terminal kinases (JNKs) have been involved in gliomagenesis. This study analyzes stem cell marker nestin and JNK expression in glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) and peritumor tissue and assesses their possible prognostic implications. EXPERIMENTAL DESIGN: Nestin and...
