Cytokeratin 13 (CK13) expression in cancer: a tissue microarray study on 10,439 tumors
Cytokeratin 13 (CK13) is a type I acidic low molecular weight cytokeratin, which is mainly expressed in urothelium and in the squamous epithelium of various sites of origin. Loss of CK13 has been implicated in the development and progression of squamous epithelial neoplasms. To comprehensively determine CK13 expression in normal and neoplastic tissues,

Pigmented epithelioid melanocytoma: A clinico-histopathological enigma
Blue nevi are a group of congenital or acquired benign dermal melanocytic tumors. Various clinical and histological variants have been described.Epithelioid blue nevus (EBN), an uncommon variant may present as blue gray nodule over trunk, extremities ...

Abstract Melanin is a free‐radical scavenger, antioxidant, and broadband absorber of ultraviolet (UV) radiation which protects the skin from environmental carcinogenesis. However, melanin synthesis and UV‐induced reactive melanin species are also implicated in melanocyte genotoxicity. Here, we attempted to reconcile these disparate functions of melanin

Common Blue Nevus withSatellite Lesions Needs aDifferential Diagnosis from Malignant Melanoma
Malignant blue nevus is rare, and a common blue nevus rarely needs a differential diagnosis from malignant melanoma. Although a melanocytic nevus with a satellite lesion is usually suggestive of a peripherally disseminating malignant melanoma, very few ...

Melanoma Ex Blue Nevus With GNA11 Mutation and BAP1 Loss: Case Report and Review of the Literature.
Cutaneous melanomas may demonstrate a variety of histopathological features and genetic abnormalities. Melanomas that arise in the setting of blue nevi, also known as "malignant blue nevus" or melanoma ex blue nevus (MBN), share a similar ...
