QPCR analyses of mRNAs encoding UII, URP, and UT in the SW1088 (anaplastic astrocytoma) and in U87, U251, 8MG, and 42MG GBM cell lines here established that expression levels were non-homogeneous and higher for UTS2R in 8MG and 42MG, UTS2 in U87, and UTS2D in SW1088 (Figure 3A). The gene discussed is UTS2; the disease is anaplastic astrocytoma.
