Functional vascular endothelial growth factor -2578 C/A polymorphism in relation to nasopharyngeal carcinoma risk and tumor progression.

Clinica chimica acta; international journal of clinical chemistry - 1 Sept 2008

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) is a mitogen for endothelial cells and a potent regulator of angiogenesis and inflammatory processes in nasopharyngeal carcinomas. In the current report, we designed a case-controlled study to evaluate whether a genetically predetermined variation in the VEGF expression may affect susceptibility and prognosis. METHODS: A PCR and restriction fragment length...
