Nanoscale cuticle mass density variations influenced by pigmentation in butterfly wing scales [PDF]
How pigment distribution influences the cuticle density within a microscopic butterfly wing scale, and how both impact final reflected color remains unknown. We used ptychographic X-ray computed tomography to quantitatively determine, at nanoscale resolutions, the three-dimensional mass density of scales with pigmentation differences.

A non-linear irreversible thermodynamic perspective on organic pigment proliferation and biological evolution [PDF]
The most important thermodynamic work performed by life today is the dissipation of the solar photon flux into heat through organic pigments in water. From this thermodynamic perspective, biological evolution is thus just the dispersal of organic pigments and water throughout Earth's surface, while adjusting the gases of Earth's atmosphere to allow the

Detection of circulating tumor cells is achieved by flow cytometry in melanoma patients
Abstract Melanoma is an aggressive skin tumor whose incidence is rising sharply, and for which the determination of new prognostic factors is a major challenge. In oncology, circulating tumor cells (CTCs) are at the heart of much research, as they represent a source of tumor material obtained non‐invasively by liquid biopsy.

Deep penetrating nevus: a case report and brief literature review
Background - Deep penetrating nevus (DPN) is a distinct variant of melanocytic nevus and remains a histopathologic challenge to pathologists because of its resemblance to blue nevus, malignant melanoma, pigmented Spitz nevus, and congenital melanocytic ...

Topical imiquimod and in situ vulvar melanoma: A promising therapy?
Abstract Objectives Vulvar melanoma is a rare type of cancer that affects mainly postmenopausal women. There are no established protocols for the treatment of vulvar melanoma. From data extrapolated from the literature on cutaneous melanoma, surgical excision remains the best option for the resectable disease.
