Loss of neurofibromatosis 1 (NF1) gene expression in NF1-associated pilocytic astrocytomas.

abstract：:Brains from human fetuses of 13 to 27 weeks gestation have been examined immunohistologically for the presence of macrophages using the marker alpha-1-anti-chymotrypsin. A preliminary study demonstrated this to be a satisfactory marker of brain macrophages, although macrophages were also weakly positive for the more s...
