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

## Abstract Vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) has emerged as one of the most important angiogenic growth factors from experimental __in vitro__ and __in vivo__ studies. In the present study, we investigated the relationship between VEGF expression and microvessel density (MVD) and defined t
## 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
