“…Similar results have been obtained in previous studies where the tumor microvessel area was found to be higher in tumors than in normal mucosa (20). Comparison of the mean area using the Bonferroni multiple comparison test showed significant differences between the AOSMF and WDSCC groups, but not among any of the other groups.…”

“…Our findings, increased number of vessels (Table 4), coinciding with other reports [31] where vascularization increased between oral lesions presenting with hyperplasia, OED and OSCC. From this it could be inferred that there is a change in the phenotype of OSCC in relation to OED and NOM and strong presence and action of proangiogenic factors on normal endothelial receptors or the presence of numerous mutated endothelial receptors that promote neovascularization in OSCC.…”

“…Furthermore, EMD directly enhances the chemotaxis and angiogenesis of endothelial cells in vivo. VEGF induces endothelial proliferation, migration, and specialization in new and developing vascular beds (104). It is also a very potent promoter of neoangiogenesis in many types of tumor (105).…”
