## Abstract Deletions of the short arm of chromosome 3 are often observed in a specific subset of aggressive neuroblastomas (NBs) with loss of distal 11q and without __MYCN__ amplification. The critical deleted region encompasses the locus of the von Hippel‐Lindau gene (__VHL__, 3p25). Constitution
## Background: Eph family receptor tyrosine kinases and their ligand ephrins play pivotal roles in development. high-level expression of transcripts encoding ephb6 receptors (ephb6), its ligands ephrin-b2 and ephrin-b3 (efnb2, efnb3) is predictive of favorable disease outcome of neuroblastoma (nb).
As part of a more extensive study of the immune response in children with neuroblastoma, serum immunoglobulin and alpha-glycoprotein levels were measured in 58 patients. Twenty-nine children were studied at diagnosis, 18 at some time during the first 2 years of treatment, and 11 who were apparently
lmmunostaining for proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA), a marker of cell proliferation, is being increasingly used to study the proliferative activity of tumors, and the PCNA labeling index has been correlated with the prognosis of several malignant neoplasms. Formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded
