Abstract:
Objective To investigate the expression of angiopoietin 2 gene in glioma and its relationship with angiogenesis.Methods The expression of angiopoietin 2 were examined by RT-PCR in 52 cases of glioma and 8 normal brain tissues.The vascular development was measured by microvessel count(MVC) which was immunostained with anti-CD34 monoclonal antibody.Results The expression of ang2 mRNA was found in 50 cases of gliomas and 8 normal brain tissues,and the expression of ang2 mRNA was significantly positively correlated with MVC(r=0.821,P
