Metastases risk in thin cutaneous melanoma: Prognostic value of clinical-pathologic characteristics and mutation profile [PDF]
Background: A high percentage of patients with thin melanoma (TM), defined as lesions with Breslow thickness ≤1 mm, presents excellent long-term survival, however, some patients develop metastases.

Basroparib inhibits YAP‐driven cancers by stabilizing angiomotin
Basroparib, a selective tankyrase inhibitor, suppresses Wnt signaling and attenuates YAP‐driven oncogenic programs by stabilizing angiomotin. It promotes AMOT–YAP complex formation, enforces cytoplasmic YAP sequestration, inhibits YAP/TEAD transcription, and sensitizes YAP‐active cancers, including KRAS‐mutant colorectal cancer, to MEK inhibition.

Primary Malignant Melanoma of the Endometrium: A Case Report
Introduction: Malignant melanoma most commonly occurs in the skin. Primary malignant melanoma of endometrium is quite rare. Its diagnosis depends on clinical characteristics and pathological examination. It usually exhibits high degree of tumor histology,

CAF‐mediated immunosuppression in ovarian cancer is driven by IDO1, reducing T‐cell function. Inhibiting IDO1 restores T‐cell proliferation and cytotoxicity, increases cancer cell apoptosis, and may help overcome CAF‐induced immune suppression in high‐grade serous ovarian cancer. Targeting IDO1 may improve antitumor immunity.

The melanoma-specific graded prognostic assessment does not adequately discriminate prognosis in a modern population with brain metastases from malignant melanoma [PDF]
The melanoma-specific graded prognostic assessment (msGPA) assigns patients with brain metastases from malignant melanoma to 1 of 4 prognostic groups.

Pathogenic Neurofibromatosis type 1 gene variants in tumors of non‐NF1 patients and role of R1276
Somatic variants of the neurofibromatosis type 1 (NF1) gene occur across neoplasms without clinical manifestation of the disease NF1. We identified emerging somatic pathogenic NF1 variants and hotspots, for example, at the arginine finger 1276. Those missense variants provide fundamental information about neurofibromin's role in cancer.

Melanoma of unknown primary in the pancreas: should it be considered primary?
Background Malignant melanoma is characterized as highly malignant due to its rapid growth and early metastasis. Metastatic melanoma from occult primary is rare. Melanoma of unknown primary in pancreas are even rear.

Anorectal Malignant Melanoma [PDF]
M ALIGNANT melanoma is the most virulent of all known tumors and its appearance is the sign of death unless radical surgery is instituted in the early phase of its development. A study of this disease leads into many helds of investigation, including the morphology and wide distribution of dendritic cells, the subject of pigment formation in the animal

IGFBP-3 inhibits Wnt signaling in metastatic melanoma cells. [PDF]
In previous works, we have shown that insulin-like growth factor-binding protein-3 (IGFBP-3), a tissue and circulating protein able to bind to IGFs, decreases drastically in the blood serum of patients with diffuse metastatic melanoma.
