| Abstract | Glial fibrillary acidic protein has been widely used in neurobiology and neuropathology as a specific marker for normal and abnormal astrocytes. Here, we report the immunostaining of 107 brain tumors and controls using an antiserum against glial fibrillary acidic protein. Selection of astroglia-derived tumors was easy and of high accuracy. Pattern of staining and usefulness of the method are described. |
