Hmm, why do you want them in italic? Even LaTeX uses an upright symbol 
when you type $\Gamma$.
If you still want it italic, you must find a font that has such an 
italic \Gamma (serif or sansserif?) and that fits your other font used 
for the axes. The standard Symbol font only has an upright \Gamma.
Then you can include the font with fontfile 'font.pfb' and use it.
