Abstract

Objective: To investigate the serum levels of a vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), an angiogenic factor and a soluble angiopoietin receptor Tie-2 (sTie-2) in patients with essential hypertension. Methods: In the present study 90 individuals (56 males and 34 females, mean age 48 ± 7 years) have been divided into 3 groups: 30 patients with hypertension, 30
