In Vivo Differentiation of Cutaneous Melanoma From Benign Nevi With Dual‐Modal System of Optical Coherence Tomography and Raman Spectroscopy

open access: yesJournal of Biophotonics, EarlyView.
An innovative method for noninvasive melanoma diagnosis using the attenuation coefficient from OCT scans and machine learning has been proposed, supporting small sample sizes. When combined with Raman spectroscopy, it can further enhance accuracy. ABSTRACT A multimodal method comprising optical imaging using OCT and molecular detection using Raman ...

Epidermal nevus

open access: yesDermatology Online Journal, 2010
A healthy 25-year-old man presented with a widespread, non-organoid, non-epidermolytic epidermal nevus. In addition to extensive hyperpigented patches and thin plaques following Blaschko lines, there were superimposed psoriasiform plaques on the elbows and warty plaques on the upper trunk. Striate palmar keraoderma also was evident.

microRNA-33a-5p increases radiosensitivity by inhibiting glycolysis in melanoma. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Glycolysis was reported to have a positive correlation with radioresistance. Our previous study found that the miR-33a functioned as a tumor suppressor in malignant melanoma by targeting hypoxia-inducible factor1-alpha (HIF-1α), a gene known to promote ...

Hematochezia: An abnormal presenting symptom of an extensive vascular malformation in a 6‐year‐old boy

open access: yesJPGN Reports, EarlyView.
Abstract Gastrointestinal (GI) bleeding can be a common symptom in the pediatric population. Vascular malformations, which cause symptoms based on their location and effect on surrounding structures, are an uncommon cause of GI bleeding. We present the case of a 6‐year‐old male with a 1‐year history of hematochezia, constipation, and microcytic anemia.

Frequent somatic mutations of GNAQ in uveal melanoma and blue naevi. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
BRAF and NRAS are common targets for somatic mutations in benign and malignant neoplasms that arise from melanocytes situated in epithelial structures, and lead to constitutive activation of the mitogen-activated protein (MAP) kinase pathway.
