ABSTRACT
Objective:To explore the role of MVD, bFGF and VEGF in OMFS and the relationship between them. Methods: Immunochemistry streptavidin peroxidase method was used to detect the MVD and the bFGF, VEGF expressions in 57 cases of OMFS samples. Results: MVD, bFGF and VEGF expressions were different between OMFS and benign. The close correlations were found among the expressions of VEGF, bFGF and MVD. Conclusion: The expressions of VEGF and bFGF are associated with MVD which indicated that VEGF and bFGF may play important roles in angiogenesis.
ABSTRACT
Objective: To study the expression of Survivin protein and its relationship with apoptosis in oromaxillofacial sarcoma(OMFS). Methods:The expression of Survivin protein and apoptosis were assessed by immunohistochemical staining and TUNEL method in 37 OMFS samples and 14 oral benign mesenchymal tumor(BMT) samples.Results:The Survivin positive rate in oromaxillofacial sarcomas was 81.08% and none in benign tumors(P
