Association study of vascular endothelial growth factor gene polymorphisms in endometrial carcinomas in a Japanese population.
OBJECTIVE: Vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) is one of the most potent endothelial cell mitogens and plays a critical role in angiogenesis of endometrial carcinomas. Several studies have demonstrated positive associations between VEGF gene polymorphisms and several carcinomas. In this study...
