Abstract:
Objective:To study the role of angiopoietin-2(Ang-2) in angiogenesis in oral squamous cell cacinoma(OSCC). Methods:Expression of angiopoietin-2 and CD_34 in 41 cases of OSCC(13 cases with lymph node metastasis)and 10 cases of normal oral mucosa was detected by immunohistochemical SABC method. Microvessel density(MVD) in the samples was counted under microscope. Results:Ang-2 was detected in 28 out of 41(68.29%) cases of OSCC and 2 out of 10(20%) of normal oral mucosa(P
