Figure 1 Selected results Bumetanide of immunohistochemical analysis for anti-human WIF-1 antibodies. The products of WIF-1 expression (brown) located in cytoplasm and membrane. The photographs of A and B are normal brain tissues and pilocytic astrocytoma (WHO grade I)which showed strong staining for WIF-1, respectively. In contrast, the anaplastic astrocytoma(WHO grade III) and glioblastomas(WHO
grade IV)that have weak or negative expression levels of WIF-1 were shown in C and D, respectively.
