Objectives. Recently, it was confirmed that angiogenesis is important in the development
and spread of a variety of human cancers, including prostate cancer (PCa). Tumor
neovascularization is thought to be controlled by chemical signals, known as angiogenic
factors (AF). To date, little is known regarding the existence and role of AF in PCa. We
previously reported on vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) in PCa. Currently, we
compare VEGF expression with that of interleukin-8 (IL-8), another putative regulator of …
