TY - JOUR AU - Black, P M AB - Platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF) induces cellular proliferation and differentiation by activating intracellular signaling mechanisms via their cognate receptors. In previous studies, we demonstrated that human brain tumors such as meningiomas, astrocytomas, medulloblastomas, and ependymomas expressed the messenger ribonucleic acid for the PDGF subunits and their receptors. In the present study, we investigated the expression of the messenger ribonucleic acid PDGF A and B chains and the PDGF alpha and beta receptors in 17 cases of oligodendrogliomas.
