Expressions and correlation of HIF-1α and VEGF-C in non-small cell lung cancer

Objective To study the expressions and correlation of hypoxia-induible factor-1 alpha(HIF-1α) and vascular endothelial growth factror-C(VEGF-C) in non-small cell lung cancer(NSCLC).Method Immunohistochemical S-P method was used to detect the expressions of HIF-1α and VEGF-C proteins in 48 samples of cancer and para-cancerous tissues.Results The positive rates of HIF-1α and VEGF-C were significantl…
