Other rarer forms of melanoma may occur, for example, under the nails (subungual), on the palms and soles (acral lentiginous), uveal or choroidal (ocular), oral or other mucosal areas such as the vulva or penis, or sometimes even inside the body such as the brain. What are the causes...
Melanoma is one of the deadliest malignancies. Its incidence has been significantly increasing in most countries in recent decades. Acral melanoma (AM), a peculiar subgroup of melanoma occurring on the palms, soles, and nails, is the main subtype of melanoma in people of color and is extremely...

Automatic classification of skin disease is a challenging task due to high similarity among them as well as complex nature of skin images i.e. hair, skin and nails and illumination conditions. It is one of the most common malignancy that becomes more difficult to treat and potential ...
There is no information on the presence of dabrafenib in breastmilk or its effects on milk production or thebreastfedinfant.

In skin homeostatsis HOX C13 plays a fundamental role, particularly in epithelial component, being mainly involved in the control of nails, hair and hair follicles development. In addition it regulates the transcription of cytokeratins genes tying a highly conserved motif in the promoter of these ...
Pigmented lesions of the nails greater than 2 mm have a higher likelihood of being invasive melanoma, but width of the lesion is not involved in tumor staging or prognosis. Cutaneous melanomas arise in which of the following epidermal layers?
Growth curves were generated by counting the total number of cells in each series of phase shift images every four hours (Fig. S9a). On a population level, the effect of the compounds on cell proliferation matched previous observations. The targeted BRAFV600E inhibitors Dabrafenib and ...
TROY is related to EDAR (ectodermal dysplasia receptor), another family member: EDAR mutations in humans result in ectodermal dysplasias: anomalies of the hair, teeth, nails, and sweat glands. Activation (by ligand or overexpression) of TROY and engagement of its intracellular adaptor proteins TRAF...
