Expressions of angiogenic markers and apoptotic markers in soft tissue sarcoma

Introduction: For tumor development and progression, angiogenesis and apoptosis play a crucial role. No study so far has tried to associate these two activities in tumor cells as well as correlation of both activities in the tumor and the endothelial cells. Conclusion: This study supports the role o...
