Expression and Prognostic Value of VEGF-C and Lymphangeogenesis 
in Lung Adenocarcinoma and Squamous Cell Carcinoma

Background and objective Vascular endothelial growth factor-C (VEGF-C), a member of the VEGF family, has been proven to be a relatively special VEGF. When binding to its receptor VEGFR-3, it activates lymphangiogenesis, which likely induces lymph node metastasis in tumors. The aim of this study is t...
