Dolichos biflorus agglutinin (DBA) binding was examined in 32 cases of intracranial human germ-cell tumors. In embryonal carcinomas, intense DBA binding sites were found on the free surface and cytoplasm of embryonal cells. In teratomas, glandular structures often had positive DBA binding sites.
Cellular carbohydrate moieties of 65 human dysonotogenetic brain tumors (craniopharyngioma, epidermoid/dermoid, Rathke cleft cyst, germinoma and non-germinomatous germ-cell tumors) and 60 common brain tumors (glioma, meningioma, neurinoma and pituitary adenoma) were investigated histochemically
To characterize biomarkers in neural tumors, we analyzed the acidic lipid fractions of 13 neural tumor cell lines using enzyme-linked immunoabsorbent assay (ELISA) and high-performance thin-layer chromatography (HPTLC) immunostaining. Sulfated glucuronosyl glycosphingolipids (SGGLs) are cell surface
Human antibody against an embryoglycan present on a mouse teratocarcinoma cell line F9 was found in sera from 16 of 29 patients with embryonal carcinoma, yolk sac tumor, immature teratoma, and choriocarcinoma of gonadal and extragonadal origins by Farr assay. In contrast, none of the sera from
The authors conducted a multiinstitutional phase II study to establish a postsurgical combined chemotherapy and radiation therapy regimen for patients with primary germ cell tumors of the brain. After surgical debulking of the tumor and histological verification, patients were divided into three
Among intracranial germ cell tumors, nongerminomatous tumors have proved refractory to conventional treatment with surgery and irradiation. The median survival is less than 2 years. Since 1983, chemotherapy has been delivered in Japan as an adjuvant therapy in patients with intracranial
