Increased Cytotoxicity of Cisplatin in SK-MEL 28 Melanoma Cells upon Down-Regulation of Melanoma Inhibitor of Apoptosis Protein
Background: Malignant melanoma is a highly metastatic cutaneous cancer and typically refractory to chemotherapy. Deregulated apoptosis has been identified as a major cause of cancer drug resistance, and upregulated expression of the inhibitor of apoptosis protein melanom, an inhibitor of apoptosis (ML-IAP) is frequent in melanoma. Methods: Based on the conclusion that ML-IAP expression contribu...
متن کاملPolyfunctional incompletely differentiated CD8+ T cells accumulates after adoptive transfer of tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes and establish immunological memory in patients with metastatic melanoma
Methods In order to characterize the long term fate of the infused tumor-reactive TILs and their attributes, we performed a longitudinal multidimension analysis of samples from 28 patients with metastatic melanoma treated in the trial NCT00937625 (TILs after lymphodepletion and followed by IL-2). The recognition of multiple autologous and allogeneic tumor antigens of TILs and peripheral blood l...
متن کاملIntravital imaging reveals transient changes in pigment production and Brn2 expression during metastatic melanoma dissemination.
How melanoma acquire a metastatic phenotype is a key issue. One possible mechanism is that metastasis is driven by microenvironment-induced switching between noninvasive and invasive states. However, whether switching is a reversible or hierarchical process is not known and is difficult to assess by comparison of primary and metastatic tumors. We address this issue in a model of melanoma metast...
متن کاملZOSTERIFORM METASTASES IN A MAN WITH MALIGNANT MELANOMA
Zosteriform metastasis is a rare clinical distribution from spreading neoplasms of every organ to the skin. Tumors most often arise from a n internal o r hematologic malignancy. W e report a 69-year-old man, a known case of malignant melanoma of the left heel. In this case, multiple red-brown metastatic nodules appeared four months after diagnosis. Distribution of metastatic lesions resemb...
متن کاملNGF reprograms metastatic melanoma to a bipotent glial-melanocyte neural crest-like precursor
Melanoma pathogenesis from normal neural crest-derived melanocytes is often fatal due to aggressive cell invasion throughout the body. The identification of signals that reprogram de-differentiated, metastatic melanoma cells to a less aggressive and stable phenotype would provide a novel strategy to limit disease progression. In this study, we identify and test the function of developmental sig...
