Angiogenesis in potentially malignant lesions and carcinomas during experimental oral carcinogenesis: a preliminary study in the hamster cheek pouch

To evaluate vascular morphology and density, angiogenic switch activation, vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) expression, and endothelial cell (EC) proliferation in the hamster cheek pouch (HCP) model of oral cancer. Immunohistochemical detection of factor VIII, 5'-Bromo-2'-Deoxyuri...

Zusammenfassung:To evaluate vascular morphology and density, angiogenic switch activation, vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) expression, and endothelial cell (EC) proliferation in the hamster cheek pouch (HCP) model of oral cancer. Immunohistochemical detection of factor VIII, 5'-Bromo-2'-Deoxyuridine (BrdU) and VEGF was performed in pre-malignant and tumoral tissues. Activation of angiogenesis was detected adjacent to epithelial dysplasia. Vascularized area and perimeter (p
