Regression of established subcutaneous B16-F10 murine melanoma tumors after gef gene therapy via the mitochondrial apoptotic pathway [PDF]
ovel treatment modalities, including gene therapy, are needed for patients with advanced melanoma. We evaluated whether the gef gene, a suicide gene from Escherichia coli, had a significant cytotoxic impact on melanoma in vivo. First, we used a non-viral

Advances in management of melanoma [PDF]
It is clear from the above that the sentinel node technique and assessment of circulating melanoma cells has provided important additional methods for staging and assessment of prognosis of patients with melanoma. Cure of the disease still depends on good quality surgery and implementation of quality control measures to ensure the adequacy of surgical ...
