Approximately 10% of melanoma cases are familial, but only 25-40% of familial melanoma cases can be attributed to germ-line mutations in the CDKN2A - the most significant high-risk melanoma susceptibility locus identified to date. The pathogenic mutation(s) in most of the remaining familial melanoma pedigrees have not yet been identified. The most common mutations in nevi and sporadic melanoma ...
OBJECTIVE To determine the prevalence of hepatic abnormalities identified during abdominal computed tomography (CT) performed within 1 month of the diagnosis of primary uveal melanoma. METHODS Retrospective review of CT reports generated within 1 month following diagnosis of uveal melanoma in 91 patients at Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center, New York, New York, from 2004 to 2009. RESUL...
OBJECTIVE To evaluate the resistance and susceptibility of human uveal melanoma cells to apoptosis induced by tumor necrosis factor-related apoptosis-inducing ligand (TRAIL). METHODS The sensitivity of 11 human uveal melanoma cell lines was analyzed by flow cytometry for the expression of TRAIL receptors and the antiapoptotic protein survivin. Caspase-8 and caspase-10 expression was also exam...
A human uveal melanoma cell line (92-1) was established from a primary uveal melanoma, and has now been maintained in culture for over 2 1/2 years. Light microscopy of the cultured cells demonstrated extremely pleiomorphic cells with large prominent nucleoli. Cell proliferation was determined with a non-radioactive propidium-iodide assay and indicated an in vitro doubling time of approximately ...
Despite improvements in early diagnosis of uveal melanoma, prognosis is still poor due to metastases development. Neoangiogenesis and migration are requisites to metastasis promotion. Cross-talking between CXCR4-CXCL12 axis and the VEGF pathway was shown to favours tumour progression. CXCR4-CXCL12-VEGF expression was evaluated by immunohistochemistry in 53 selected cases of primary uveal melano...
Metastatic tumor cells originating from cancers of a variety of tissues such as breast, skin, and prostate may remain dormant for long periods of time. In the case of uveal melanoma, the principal malignancy of the eye, complete removal of the primary tumor by enucleation can nonetheless be followed by metastatic tumor growth in distant organs months, years, or even decades later. This suggests...
Fifteen posterior uveal melanoma cell lines were analyzed qualitatively for gelatinolytic and caseinolytic proteinase activity after one to five in vitro passages. All 15 cell lines secreted a gelatinolytic metalloproteinase, with an apparent molecular weight of 72 kD, into protein-free culture media; nine of these secreted an additional gelatinolytic metalloproteinase with an apparent molecula...
To further our understanding of the somatic genetic basis of uveal melanoma, we sequenced the protein-coding regions of 52 primary tumors and 3 liver metastases together with paired normal DNA. Known recurrent mutations were identified in GNAQ, GNA11, BAP1, EIF1AX, and SF3B1. The role of mutated EIF1AX was tested using loss of function approaches including viability and translational efficiency...
There is a need for more effective treatments for uveal melanoma. The recombinant oncolytic adenovirus H101 replicates specifically in p53-depleted tumor cells, and has been approved for use by the Chinese State Food and Drug Administration. However, this treatment is associated with subsequent remission. Transfection of uveal melanoma cells with a small interfering RNA against Notch1 (siNotch1...
