Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor (VEGF) expression. Isoforms of VEGF mRNA in normal (MG) or tumoral (tumor) mammary glands from control or I2-treated rats were measured by the real time PCR method. A. Representative gel of amplicon of Cyclophilin (Cyc) and 120 and 164 isoforms of VEGF mRNA in 2% agarose gel stained with ethidium bromide. 1, ladder; 2, MG; 3, MG + I2., 4, Tumor; 5, Tumor + I2; 6, all the PCR reagents without RT sample. B. VEGF mRNA quantification. Cyclophilin (Cyc) served as internal control and was used to normalize for differences in input RNA. Data are expressed as the mean ± SD. Differences between experimental groups were analyzed using a one-way ANOVA and the Tukey-HSD Test. Means with different letters are significantly different (p < 0.05)
