abstract：:Interactions between master regulatory pathways provide higher-order controls for cellular regulation. Recently, we reported a C-->T single-nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) in the vascular endothelial growth factor receptor 1 (VEGFR-1/Flt1) promoter that merges human VEGF and p53 pathways. This finding suggested a new la...
