In this study we analyzed the expression of mRNA for PDGF-B and PDGF B-type receptor (PDGFrecB) in 42 biopsy specimens from human astrocytic gliomas and other brain tumors. All gliomas expressed PDGF-B mRNA at higher levels than found in peritumoral and normal nervous tissues. Levels of PDGF-B trans

The present studies investigated the expression of the platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF) and PDGF-receptor genes in human meningiomas. Northern blot analysis demonstrated that all meningiomas examined expressed both the c-sidPDGF-2 proto-oncogene and the PDGF-receptor gene. In situ hybridization
Steady-state levels of rat central nervous system (CNS) platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF) A-and B-chain mRNAs were measured by a polymerase chain reaction method employing a synthetic gene internal standard, and the rates of transcription of PDGF A-and B-chain genes in CNS were estimated by a nu
In human umbilical vein and bovine aortic endothelial cells in culture c-sis gene expression and secretion of platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF) has been previously demonstrated. We now report the presence of PDGF-1 and PDGF-Z/sis mRNA transcripts in primary cultures of human iliac artery endothe
