...H. Terada; T. Urano; H. Konno The aim of this study was to investigate the relationship of Interleukin-8 (IL-8) with vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) and plasminogen activator system (PA system) in the progression of colorectal cancer (CRC). In eighty-seven patients with CRC, the levels...

Methods: Influence of Tibolon treatment (0.1 mg/kg body weight, during 3 days before and 3 weeks after...

...A.J. Karayiannakis; A. Zbar; A. Polychronidis; C. Simopoulos Background: Wound healing relies on a coordinated expression and release of growth factors controlling angiogenesis. We measured vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) levels in serum and early wound fluid following primary sutured...
