p53 Immunostaining in CNS embryonal tumors. Most p53 immunopositivity was relatively faint and present only in a small fraction of the tumor. This nodular medulloblastoma had weak staining in less than 25% of cells (A). Some anaplastic medulloblastomas had strong p53 immunostaining in a larger fraction of cells (B). Most AT/RT and supratentorial PNET contained p53 immunopositive cells, like this lesion metastatic within the CNS in which almost all cells are strongly positive (C). Note the lack pf staining in non-neoplastic stroma (Asterisk).
