Abstract

VASCULAR ENDOTHELIAL GROWTH FACTOR (VEGF) is a signal protein produced by cells that stimulates vasculogenesis, angiogenesis and lymph angiogenesis. Cancers expressing VEGF are able to grow and metastasize. As THYROID CANCER is the most common endocrine cancer and MEDULLARY THYROID CANCER (MTC) is an aggressive metastatic cancer, the aim of this study is the relationship between serum VEGF levels and the increased risk of MTC. A descriptive cross-sectional study was conducted, 45 patients with MTC (21 males and 24 females) and 45 healthy persons as control group (24 male and 21 females) were selected. Serum VEGF levels were determined by ELISA technique in both groups. Data analysis was performed using Medcalc 14.8.1 and SPSS22.There was no statistically significant difference in serum VEGF levels between total MTC patients and total control groups, but serum VEGF levels in female MTC group were significantly higher than those in female control group (P<0.05). The results of this study showed an acceptable association between the serum VEGF levels with MTC in females. Therefore, VEGF can be applicable in the diagnosis and therapies of this aggressive metastatic cancer in females by the VEGF/VEGFR axis evaluation and inhibition.
