Differential expression of tenascin-C and tenascin-X in human astrocytomas.

abstract：:Defects of major histocompatibility complex (MHC) class I antigen-processing machinery (APM) components have been shown to contribute to immune escape of malignant cells. We investigated the expression of APM components in astrocytomas without detectable defects in HLA class I antigen expression and correlated it with...
