EXPRESSION OF EAAT2 IN DYSEMBRYOPLASTIC NEUROEPITHELIAL TUMORS (DNT) AND IN ANGIOCENTRIC GLIOMA. ITS POSSIBLE ROLE IN THE PATHOGENESIS OF THE EPILEPSY

Angiocentric glioma is a rare cerebral tumor with about only 110 cases described at the time of this request. The access to the CBTTC samples and the consequent possibility to obtain a critical number of AGs specimens, a tumor for which we have already demonstrated the loss of EAAT2, would be essential to confirm this data in a larger population and to compare the expression of EAAT2 in AGs with the expression in DNTs.
