1 3021915 This cell line provides a GFAP-expressing brain tumor model that extends the use of autochthonous ASV-induced astrocytomas by allowing in vitro and in vivo studies.
2 7483906 Porencephalic cysts were surrounded by astrocytes with increased expression of GFAP and vimentin-positive cells and cell processes.
3 11857388 Autologous and allogeneic SEREX analysis of >5 x 10(6) clones with the sera of 18 astrocytoma patients revealed 10 antigens: the differentiation antigen glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP), Bax-inhibitor 1 (which was overexpressed in all glioma samples tested), 3 other molecules involved in the regulation of gene expression and proliferation (the nm23-H2-encoded nucleoside diphosphate kinase B, the Ran binding protein-2 and a DNA binding protein encoded by the son gene), SP40,40 (a complement inhibitory molecule), the chaperonin TCP-1, calnexin and 2 new gene products.
4 11857388 Antibody responses in astrocytoma patients against antigens expressed by gliomas were rare and, with the exception of Bax-inhibitor 1 and the product of the son gene, were also found in apparently healthy controls.
5 12824506 In addition, tumors were examined for expression of vimentin, cytokeratin, smooth muscle actin, desmin, melan A, neural cell adhesion molecule, S-100, glial fibrillary acidic protein, nerve growth factor receptor, and collagen type IV.
6 12824506 On the basis of collagen type IV and crystallin alpha A immunopositivity, we established that three of nine tumors were of lens epithelial origin.
7 12824506 Expression of desmin and smooth muscle actin identified one tumor as a leiomyosarcoma.
8 15780734 For each hamster included in the study, prion-specific serum antibodies as well as deposition of pathological prion protein (PrP(res)), glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP), and mRNA expression for cytokines (TNF alpha, IL-1beta, IL-10) in brain tissues were evaluated.
9 15780734 In immunized animals, increased survival after challenge was associated with a reduction of cerebral lesion, PrP deposition and GFAP expression; in these animals, anti-prion protein peptide antibody levels were increased, and the expression of pro-inflammatory cytokines (TNF alpha and IL-1beta) was reduced.
10 15780734 For each hamster included in the study, prion-specific serum antibodies as well as deposition of pathological prion protein (PrP(res)), glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP), and mRNA expression for cytokines (TNF alpha, IL-1beta, IL-10) in brain tissues were evaluated.
11 15780734 In immunized animals, increased survival after challenge was associated with a reduction of cerebral lesion, PrP deposition and GFAP expression; in these animals, anti-prion protein peptide antibody levels were increased, and the expression of pro-inflammatory cytokines (TNF alpha and IL-1beta) was reduced.
12 16972888 Resolution process of cerebroparenchymal amyloid beta-protein (Abeta) deposition has become of increasing interest in the light of recent advance in the Abeta-vaccination therapy for Alzheimer's disease (AD).
13 16972888 To clarify the natural removal processes of Abeta burden in the brain with AD, we devised a triple-step staining method: Bodian for dystrophic neurites, anti-glial fibrillary acidic protein for astrocytes, and anti-Abeta.
14 24765187 The current study presents a highly aggressive case of small cell GB as diagnosed by histological features and immunohistochemistry for vimentin, glial fibrillary acidic protein, oligodendrocyte lineage transcription factor 2, isocitrate dehydrogenase 1-R132H and p53.
15 25124724 Concentrations of IgM and IgG autoantibodies specific to both neural (neurofilaments, cholineacetyltransferase, astrocyte glial fibrillary acidic protein, and myelin basic protein) and non-neural (actin, desmin, and keratin) antigens were measured and the associations of these autoantibody concentrations with chemical exposures were assessed using linear regression.
