In the present study, immunohistochemistry performed on glioma specimens using anti-TF 1849 mAb showed that TF expression in gliomas increased in proportion to the grade of malignancy based on the World Health Organization (WHO) classification, and TF was remarkably expressed in necrosis and pseudopalisading cells, the histopathological hallmarks of glioblastoma multiforme (GBM). This evidence concerns the gene TF and glioma.
