## BACKGROUND. Recent clinical studies have demonstrated that tumor angiogenesis is a potent prognostic indicator for breast cancer patients. The quantitation of endothelial growth factors is thought to be useful to assess angiogenic phenotype in the tumor. Among the many new endothelial growth fa
It is known that vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) family is an important role in vasculogenesis and angiogenesis. Among the VEGF family members, VEGF-A plays an essential role in angiogenesis. However, the significance of serum levels of other VEGF members (VEGF-C and -D) has been reported
We investigated the expression of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF)/vascular permeability factor (VPF) in stab and freeze brain injury models in rats. Immunohistochemical staining with anti-VEGF antibodies demonstrated an increase in VEGF-positive cells in and around both lesions. Morphologi
