Abstract excerpt

OBJECTIVE: Angiogenesis, the formation of new blood vessels, may play a role in giant cell arteritis (GCA), the most common type of systemic vasculitis in the elderly in Western countries. Vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) is one of the most important proangiogenic mediators. We wanted to assess the potential role of -1154 G-->A (rs1570360) and -634 G-->C (rs2010963) VEGF gene functional variants in GCA...
