Conditional control of MITF reveals cellular subpopulations essential for melanoma survival and recurrence in new zebrafish models
… each year and continually rising incidence. BRAFV600E inhibitors have led to clinically significant improvements in outcomes for melanoma patients, yet many patients with metastatic melanoma rapidly succumb to the disease due to eventual chemoresistance or insensitivity to the drug. Thus, it …

Investigation of key non-coding and coding genes in cutaneous melanomagenesis
… The second biomarker investigated, mutated BRAF, has been seen in 50-70% of spontaneous cutaneous melanoma. The commonest mutation in melanoma is a glutamic acid for valine substitution at position 600 (V600E). Oncogenic BRAF controls many aspects of melanoma cell biology. The aim of …
