VEGF-C and Lymphatic Vessel Density in Tumor Tissue of Gastric Cancer: Correlations with Pathoclinical Features and Prognosis
Peritumoral overexpression of VEGF-C in primary gastric cancer tumors is associated with increased LVD. The Lauren intestinal type of cancer is associated with VEGF-C overexpression. The overexpression of VEGF-C in intestinal-type gastric cancer is associated with worse prognosis.
