All dysembryoplastic neuroepithelial tumours, myxoid glioneuronal tumours and the neurocytic regions of rosette-forming glioneuronal tumours showed strong expression of neuron-glia antigen 2, platelet-derived growth factor receptor alpha (markers of oligodendrocyte precursor cells) and neurite outgrowth inhibitor-A (a marker of developing oligodendrocytes), but lacked the expression of oligodendrocyte markers ectonucleotide pyrophosphatase/phosphodiesterase family member 6 and myelin basic protein. This evidence concerns the gene ENPP6 and mixed neuronal-glial tumor.
