Astrocyte-Specific Expression Patterns Associated with the PDGF-Induced Glioma Microenvironment
29 Feb 2012
Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: The tumor microenvironment contains normal, non-neoplastic cells that may contribute to tumor growth and maintenance. Within PDGF-driven murine gliomas, tumor-associated astrocytes (TAAs) are a large component of the tumor microenvironment. The function of non-neoplastic astrocytes in the glioma microenvironment has not been fully elucidated; moreover, the differences between these astrocytes and...
