Abstract excerpt
Wild-type p53 protein has been shown to inhibit angiogenesis through thrombospondin in the preclinical setting. Here, we determined the associations between the expression of the angiogenic factor vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) and the p53 status, including different mutation sites and types, in primary breast cancer. Cytosols from 224 primary breast cancer patients were analyzed with an enzyme...
