The chemical compositions of eleven wild species of aromatic and medicinal plants indigenous to Algeria, including Thymus, Mentha, Rosmarinus, Lavandula, and Eucalyptus, were analyzed. The identification of the chemical composition of each oil was conducted using GC-FID and GC-MS capillary gas chromatography. The study investigated the chemical variability of the essential oils based on several parameters.

Among the pro-angiogenic factors, VEGF (Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor) seems to be one of the main players in tumor angiogenesis. It exerts its pro-angiogenic activity by attaching to the surface of receptors with tyrosine kinase activity (VEGFR).
