Tissue sections will be stained by immunohisto-chemistry using the following antibodies: EGFRvIII, PTEN, phospho-specific PKB/Akt Ser473; phosphor-mTORSer2448, p70S6K Thr389; S6 ribosomal protein Ser235/236. These antibodies are selected on the basis of providing a readout of upstream and downstream signaling through mTOR, and availability of antibodies that reliably stain paraffinembedded tissue.
