Immunohistochemical staining of MPG protein in tumor cells of GBM (a) and astrocytoma (b) ( o r i g i n a l m a g n i c a t i o n × 2 0 0 ). Staining for this antigen is described in Materials and Methods. Positive staining of MPG is seen in the nuclei of tumors cells and is more abundant in the high- (a) than the low-grade (b) tumors. Negative expression of MPG (c) was observed in nonneoplastic brain tissues.
