WIPI1, BAG1 and PEX3 autophagy-related genes are relevant melanoma markers [PDF]
ROS and oxidative stress may promote autophagy; on the other hand, autophagy may help reduce oxidative damages. According to the known interplay of ROS, autophagy, and melanoma onset, we hypothesized that autophagy-related genes (ARGs) may represent ...

Computer-Aided Decision Support for Melanoma Detection Applied on Melanocytic and Nonmelanocytic Skin Lesions: A Comparison of Two Systems Based on Automatic Analysis of Dermoscopic Images [PDF]
Commercially available clinical decision support systems (CDSSs) for skin cancer have been designed for the detection of melanoma only. Correct use of the systems requires expert knowledge, hampering their utility for nonexperts. Furthermore, there are no systems to detect other common skin cancer types, that is, nonmelanoma skin cancer (NMSC).

Acidic microenvironment plays a key role in human melanoma progression through a sustained exosome mediated transfer of clinically relevant metastatic molecules [PDF]
Background: Microenvironment cues involved in melanoma progression are largely unknown. Melanoma is highly influenced in its aggressive phenotype by the changes it determinates in its microenvironment, such as pH decrease, in turn influencing cancer cell

Extended Feature Space-Based Automatic Melanoma Detection System [PDF]
Melanoma is the deadliest form of skin cancer. Uncontrollable growth of melanocytes leads to melanoma. Melanoma has been growing wildly in the last few decades. In recent years, the detection of melanoma using image processing techniques has become a dominant research field.

Pre-clinical modeling of cutaneous melanoma
Despite the new targeted and immunotherapies for metastatic melanoma, several patients show therapeutic plateau. Here, the authors review the current pre-clinical models of cutaneous melanoma and discuss their strengths and limitations that may help with

Combination immunotherapy induces distinct T-cell repertoire responses when administered to patients with different malignancies. [PDF]
BackgroundCTLA-4 blockade with ipilimumab is Food and Drug Administration-approved for melanoma as a monotherapy and has been shown to modulate the circulating T-cell repertoire.
