background: the pathogenesis of many diseases is correlated to irregularity in vascular endothelial growth factor (vegf) expression. results from several association studies show that variation in the level of vegf expression is related to polymorphic sequences within the vegf gene. additionally, there are many studies showing that some gene polymorphisms significantly influence the pharmacokin...
