[Our findings suggest inheritance of the VEGF(-2578)C allele could serve as an independent prognostic indicator of BrCA prognosis. The VEGF(-2578) marker may have clinical implications among a subset of ER(+)/PR(+) patients with an aggressive phenotype. Because the VEGF(-2578)C allele is linked to high VEGF expression, this cytokine is a potential prognostic and targeted clinical management tool.].
