## BACKGROUND. Transforming growth factors โค (TGFs โค) are involved in a variety of important cellular functions, including cell growth and differentiation, adhesion, migration, extracellular matrix formation, and immune function. Moreover, it has been reported that TGFs โค are correlated with angiog

## BACKGROUND. Platelet-derived endothelial cell growth factor (PD-ECGF) is an angiogenic factor that has potent chemotactic activity for endothelial cells. Although it is expressed in the majority of colorectal tumors, and some reports suggest that its high expression is related to poor prognosis,
## Abstract ## BACKGROUND The vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) family and VEGF receptors (VEGFR) play an essential role in the angiogenesis of both pathologic and nonpathologic conditions. However, the prognostic significance of VEGF and VEGFR expression in ovarian carcinoma is unclear.
