Abstract:Objective To examine the expression of plasma hypoxia-inducible factor 1 alpha (HIF-1 α),vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) and microvessel density (MVD) of patients with NHL. Methods Totally 28 cases in NHL group( group A) and 27 cases in control one( group B) were enrolled. We examined the expression of HIF-1α, VEGF and MVD in tissue samples with immunohistochemical stain of two groups respectively.Results The levels of HIF-1α, VEGF and MVD in the two groups respectively with significant statistical difference. Conclusions The levels of HIF-1 α, VEGF and MVD in patients with NHL is higher than that of in lymphadenitis. It's possible that HIF-1α can promote MVD via adjusting VEGF level.
