Background. A murine model (C3H mice) of squamous cell carcinoma (SCCVII) has been used to investigate the role of arachidonic acid (AA) metabolites in head and neck cancer. Inhibition of tumor growth by cyclooxygenase (COX) and lipoxygenase (LOX) inhibitors of AA metabolism has been associated with

## Abstract In physiological conditions, endothelial cell proliferation is strictly controlled by several growth factors, among which bFGF and VEGF are the most effective. Both bind to specific tyrosine kinase receptors and trigger intracellular signal cascades. In particular, bFGF stimulates the r
