Results In radicular cysts, HIF-1α expression was absent in 1 (4.2%), weak in 5 (20.8%), mild in 7 (29.2%), and strong in 11 (45.8%) cases, while VEGF expression was absent in 1 (4.2%), weak in 6 (25.0%), mild in 9 (37.5%), and strong in 8 (33.3%) of the cases; nevertheless, in periapical granulomas, HIF-1α expression was absent in 8 (29.6%), weak in 6 (22.2%), mild in 9 (33.3%), and strong in 4 (14.8%) of the cases, whereas VEGF expression was absent in 4 (14.8%), weak in 16 (59.3%), mild in 4 (14.8%), and strong in 3 (11.1%) of the cases. This evidence concerns the gene VEGFA and dental pulp disorder.
