Multiple cell-signaling ligands and receptors-including vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), insulin-like growth factor (IGF), endothelial growth factor (EGF), v-akt murine thymoma viral oncogene homolog (AKT), platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF), mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK), and 70-kilodalton (kD) protein S6 kinase (p70S6 kinase)-reportedly are variably expressed in osteogenic sarcoma. Expression of these proteins may have future implications for prognostication and targeted therapy. The objective of the current study was to determine the relation between clinical outcome and the expression of these proteins.
