the aim of this study was to examine the effect of swimming submaximal training and cadmium consumption on cardiac hif1-α and vascular endothelial growth factor (vegf) in pregnant rats. 32 pregnant wistar rats were randomly divided into 4 groups: cadmium, swimming, cadmium+swimming and control. experimental groups performed the swimming protocol for 3 weeks, 5 sessions a week for 60 minutes per...

background: vascular endothelial growth factor (vegf) is capable of initiating angiogenesis in blood vessels and may act as mitogenic agent for epithelium of odontogenic cysts and tumors. this study was conducted to evaluate the role of epithelial vegf expression in odontogenic cysts and ameloblastoma and its correlation with argyrophilic nucleolar organizer region counts to assess its role in ...

background: the effects of the vascular endothelial growth factor (vegf) gene ?2578c/a polymorphism on colorectal cancer (crc) risk have been investigated in some studies; however, the results of these studies were conflicting and ambiguous. therefore, we aimed to do a meta-analysis to investigate the association of vegf ?2578c/a polymorphisms with crc risk from all eligible case-control studie...

introduction: acute myeloid leukemia is a malignant transformation of hematopoietic tissue, bone marrow infiltration of undifferentiated cells known as blasts that interfere with the production of normal cells. vascular endothelial growth factor (vegf) is persistently secreted from myeloid cells and high levels can be detected in patients' serum. methods: twenty-one aml patients, who were chemo...

background: copper and zinc are the elements with numerous physiological activities.  copper  (cu)  has  an  important  role  in  angiogenesis  and  acts  by increasing vascular endothelial growth factor (vegf). serum levels of copper will be increased in cancer incidence, progression and recurrence. the aim of this study was to measure blood levels of copper, zinc, and the ratio of cu /zn, as ...

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 ...
