Abstract:
Vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF)-specific effects on vascular endothelial cells,by promoting endothelial cell proliferation,increased vascular permeability,to induce tumor angiogenesis and lymphangiogenesis in tumor development has played key role.Studies have shown,VEGF and its receptor expression and the incidence of thyroid cancer,lymph node metastasis,prognosis,inhibition of VEGF and its receptor expression in anaplastic thyroid cancer and medullary cancer treatment in a certain application.
