The role of vascular endothelial growth factor A polymorphisms in breast cancer

The role of vascular endothelial growth factor A polymorphisms in breast cancer

Breast cancer is the most common cancer in females and the leading cause of cancer death in women worldwide. Angiogenesis, the formation of new blood vessels, plays an important role in the development and progression of breast cancer. Vascular endothelial growth factor A (VEGFA), the key modulator...
