• Circulating biomarkers for the prediction of abdominal aortic aneurysm growth 

      Nana P., Dakis K., Brodis A., Spanos K., Kouvelos G. (2021)
      Background: Abdominal aortic aneurysm represents a distinct group of vascular lesions, in terms of surveillance and treatment. Screening and follow-up of patients via duplex ultrasound has been well established and proposed ...
    • Clinical Significance of Circulating Osteopontin Levels in Patients With Lung Cancer and Correlation With VEGF and MMP-9 

      Kerenidi T., Kazakou A.P., Lada M., Tsilioni I., Daniil Z., Gourgoulianis K.I. (2016)
      Osteopontin (OPN) is a multifunctional cytokine involved in carcinogenesis. Serum levels of OPN, vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), and matrix metalloproteinase-9 (MMP-9) were measured by ELISA in 90 lung cancer ...
