The prognosis for a subependymoma is better than for most ependymal tumors, and is considered a grade I / IV tumor in the World Health Organization ( WHO ) classification.
12.
Glial fibrillary acidic protein is an intermediate filament ( IF ) protein that is expressed by numerous cell types of the central nervous system ( CNS ) including astrocytes and ependymal cells.
13.
The pericytes form the core of the scar, while ependymal cells form a second layer around the core, followed by another layer of astrocytes that originated through self-duplication.
14.
"' Ependyma "'is the thin epithelial lining of the ventricular system of the brain and the central canal of the spinal cord, made up of ependymal cells.
15.
This barrier creates a tight hydrophobic layer around the ventricles of the brain, which through the function of their ependymal cells, are responsible for the synthesis of cerebrospinal fluid ( CSF ).
16.
PGRMC1 / 25-Dx is expressed in various regions of the brain [ hypothalamic area, circumventricular organs, ependymal cells of the lateral ventricles, meninges, including regions known to facilitate lordosis.
17.
During mouse embryo development Gli1 expression can be detected in the gut mesoderm, ventral neural tube, ependymal layer of the spinal cord, forebrain, midbrain, cerebellum, and in sites of endochondral bone formation.
18.
The "'central canal "', also known as "'ependymal canal "', is the cerebrospinal fluid-filled space that runs longitudinally through the length of the entire spinal cord.
19.
The cells were already known as ependymal cells, described by one biologist as the most boring cells in the brain because their function is simply to line the cavities of the ventricles and spinal cord which hold the spinal fluid.
20.
Early autoradiographic studies using tritiated PK-11195 ( [ 3H ]-PK11195 ) demonstrated that in the central nervous system ( CNS ) of rodent, it binds primarily to the ependymal walls, choroid plexus, and olfactory bulb.
