CLEC11A and neoplasm: In order to test the consistency of the relationship between SCGF expression and the histological response to imatinib, we analyzed SCGF expression in tumor areas scored as acellular or with <10% residual tumoral cells and in those areas scored as non-responsive or scarcely responsive in three imatinib-treated patients (GISTs 6, 7 and 8 in Table 1).
