Exophytic malignant brainstem mixed glioma in an adult: a case report.

abstract：:In the human glioblastoma cell line, T-MG1, plasminogen activator activity (PA-activity) was demonstrated by using the chromogenic substrate S-2251. Using monoclonal antibodies against human urokinase type PA (u-PA) and human tissue type PA (t-PA), only u-PA activity was found in T-MG1 cell extracts. The u-PA activity...
