## Abstract A common 936 C/T polymorphism in the gene for the vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) has been associated with VEGF plasma levels. In our caseβcontrol study, we investigated the role of this polymorphism for breast cancer risk. VEGF genotype was determined in 500 women with breast
## Abstract ## BACKGROUND Vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) is a critical proangiogenic factor in solid tumors. However, its expression and role in human neuroendocrine tumor development and progression remains unclear. ## METHODS Using immunohistochemistry, VEGF and Sp1 expression patte
