Abstract excerpt
VEGF, a potent angiogenic growth factor, is up-regulated in many tumors including human breast tumors and stimulates growth of vascular networks that support tumor growth and metastasis. We previously reported that natural and synthetic progestins (P) increased VEGF mRNA and protein levels in progesterone receptor (PR) containing T47-D human breast cancer cells in a PR dependent manner, but not in PR positive...
