## Abstract ## Objectives/Hypothesis: To determine the roles of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), Angiopoietin (Ang)β1, and Angβ2 in nasal polyps (NPs) by assaying expression patterns and evaluating the effects of dexamethasone (DEX) on these factors in organ cultured NPs. ## Study Desig
Vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) and platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF) pathways are crucial to angiogenesis, a process that contributes significantly to the pathogenesis of portal hypertension. This study determined the effects of inhibition of VEGF and/or PDGF signaling on hyperdynamic
