Increased placenta growth factor mRNA level is significantly associated with progression, recurrence and poor prognosis of oral squamous cell carcinoma

Expression of placenta growth factor (PlGF) mRNA is shown to correlate with the progression and prognosis of several human cancers. In this study, we assessed whether the PlGF mRNA level in oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) tissue could be used to predict the progression and prognosis of OSCCs in...
