5-Hydroxymethylcytosine Expression in Metastatic Melanoma versus Nodal Nevus in Sentine Lymph Node Biopsies
Lee, Jonathan J.; Granter, Scott R.; Laga, Alvaro C.; Saavedra, Arturo; Zhan, Qian; Guo, Weimin; Xu, Shuyun; Murphy, George F.; Lian, Christine G. (2014)Sentinel lymph node biopsies are conducted to stage patients with newly-diagnosed melanomas that have histopathologic attributes conferring defined levels of metastatic potential. Because benign nevic cells may also form ... -
Loss of the epigenetic mark, 5-Hydroxymethylcytosine, correlates with small cell/nevoid subpopulations and assists in microstaging of human melanoma
Lee, Jonathan J.; Cook, Martin; Mihm, Martin C.; Xu, Shuyun; Zhan, Qian; Wang, Thomas J.; Murphy, George F.; Lian, Christine G. (Impact Journals LLC, 2015)Melanomas in the vertical growth phase (VGP) not infrequently demonstrate cellular heterogeneity. One commonly encountered subpopulation displays small cell/nevoid morphology. Although its significance remains unknown, ... -
