The strong positive correlation between the Pyk2 and FAK protein levels in glioma and mRNA levels of EGF, PDGFβ, SDF-1α, and IL-8 (Figure 1) is supported by the upregulation of phosphorylated Pyk2 and FAK following treatment with cytokines and chemokines (Figure 2). The gene discussed is EGF; the disease is glioma.
