Frontiers in OncologyPurposeEven today, melanoma is a highly aggressive neoplasm with a high mortality rate. The nodular type is very aggressive and has cerebroid nests of melanocytes (CNMs) at the growth edge, morphologically similar to the poorly differentiated neoplastic ...

A Dense CNN approach for skin lesion classification [PDF]
arXiv, 2018 This article presents a Deep CNN, based on the DenseNet architecture jointly with a highly discriminating learning methodology, in order to classify seven kinds of skin lesions: Melanoma, Melanocytic nevus, Basal cell carcinoma, Actinic keratosis / Bowen's disease, Benign keratosis, Dermatofibroma, Vascular lesion.

Shedding light on melanins within in situ human eye melanocytes using 2-photon microscopy profiling techniques. [PDF]
, 2019 Choroidal melanocytes (HCMs) are melanin-producing cells in the vascular uvea of the human eye (iris, ciliary body and choroid). These cranial neural crest-derived cells migrate to populate a mesodermal microenvironment, and display cellular functions ...

Cryomicroneedle Arrays for Biotherapeutics Delivery
Small Science, EarlyView.CryoMNs for biotherapeutic delivery to treat various diseases. CryoMNs: cryomicroneedles. Biotherapy offers a promising approach for treating a variety of diseases. However, the lack of advanced delivery systems remains a significant barrier to improve the efficacy, safety, and cost‐effectiveness of biotherapeutics.

Elastic Properties of Nematic Liquid Crystals Formed by Living and Migrating Cells [PDF]
arXiv, 1998 In culture migrating and interacting amoeboid cells can form nematic liquid crystal phases. A polar nematic liquid crystal is formed if the interaction has a polar symmetry. One type of white blood cells (granulocytes) form clusters where the cells are oriented towards the center.

Functional Ecology, EarlyView.Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Animal coloration serves a variety of visually related functions in nature (e.g. mate choice, aposematism and camouflage) but the pigments in integumentary tissues such as skin, scales and feathers may also serve functions unrelated to the visual environment (e.g ...

Early- and late-migrating cranial neural crest cell populations have equivalent developmental potential in vivo [PDF]
, 1997 We present the first in vivo study of the long-term fate and potential of early-migrating and late-migrating mesencephalic neural crest cell populations, by performing isochronic and heterochronic quail-to-chick grafts.

Technical Note: The Use of RNA-interference as a Tool to Find Proteins Involved in Melanosome Formation or Transport [PDF]
, 2009 Melanosomes are lysosome-related organelles that produce and transport the pigment melanin within melanocytes. Mutations in proteins required for melanosome transport and formation lead to a range of pigmentation defects, manifested at the cellular level
