Abstract:
Objective To investigate the expression of transforming growth factor-β1(TFG-β1) and its significance as well as its effect on the angiogenesis in colorectal carcinoma (CRC). Methods The expression of TGF-β1,the expression of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) and microvessel density (MVD) in 70 patients with CRC and 10 normal colorectal mucosal tissues were examined by immunohistochemistry. Results Compared with the normal colorectal mucosal tissues,the expression of TGF-β1 in CRC is higher.The...
