## Abstract Interaction between cancer cells and adjacent stromal cells is important to promote tumor development. Our aim was to study total COXβ2 mRNA expression in both cancer cells and surrounding stromal cells and its association with angiogenic factor VEGF mRNA expression, tumor angiogenesis

Vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) is an important regulator of angiogenesis and vascular permeability. Increased serum VEGF concentrations (S-VEGF) have been found in patients with various types of human cancer, including cancer of the lung. However, the clinical and prognostic significance
## Abstract ## BACKGROUND: Notch signaling plays a key role in embryonic vascular development and angiogenesis. The authors aimed to study the prognostic role of the angiogenesisβrelated Notch ligands and receptors and investigate the prognostic impact of the coexpression of vascular endothelial g
