Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Angiogenesis plays an important role in tumor progression. The vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) is an important regulator of angiogenesis. AIM: The objective of this study was to investigate the association between VEGF +936 C/T gene polymorphism and glioma risk in a Chinese Han population. METHODS: We extracted the peripheral blood samples in 160 glioma patients and 320 controls. Genotyping...
