background vegf gene has been reported to be related with many diseases and recurrent pregnancy loss in various studies. vegf polymorphisms are risk factors for pregnancy losses, and generally studies report only women’s genetic analyses. to evaluate the association between vegf a c405g, c460t, c936t and c2578a polymorphisms and spontaneous abortion, we studied the genotypes of spontaneously ab...

background: determination of the impact of angiogenesis on tumor development and progression is essential. this study aimed to determine the serum levels of vascular endothelial growth factor (vegf) and interleukin 6 (il-6) in breast carcinoma, and to correlate them with tumor size, lymph node involvement, and cancer stage. methods: under aseptic precautions 5 ml of venous blood was collected f...

Background: There is a direct correlation between ocular vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) level and progression of pathological outcomes in diabetic retinopathy. In our previous study, the periocular administration of propranolol and celecoxib could significantly reduce ocular VEGF levels in a diabetic mouse model. Here, we investigated the changes of serum VEGF after ...

background :chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (copd) is a third leading cause of death.   methods : in this case control study, we prepared 5 cc bloods from the antecubital vein of 100 copd patients and 40 healthy individuals as control group. vascular endothelial growth factor (vegf) expression protein level was measured by elisa in both groups.   results : we found that concentration of v...

Background:Oral lichen planus (OLP) is considered as a potentially malignant disorder and vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) may play a key role in cancer development. The aim of this study was to compare serum and saliva VEGF among patients with OLP, oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) and a healthy control group. Methods:A cross sectional study was pe...

Background: Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) is a chronic lung disease characterized by progressive and irreversible obstruction of the airways of the lungs. Different studies have emphasized on the role of Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor (VEGF) in COPD patients. The aim of this study was to investigate the relationship of this factor with disease severity and th...

objective(s): the purpose of the present study was the immunohistochemical evaluation of vegf and vii factors in dog’s teeth pulp revascularized with mta and propolis. materials and methods: 144 mature and immature two rooted dog’s premolar canals were selected.  pulp necrosis and infection were established after 2 weeks and the disinfection of the canals was done with copious naocl irrigation ...
