Exploring Differential Connexin Expression across Melanocytic Tumor Progression Involving the Tumor Microenvironment

Exploring Differential Connexin Expression across Melanocytic Tumor Progression Involving the Tumor Microenvironment

The incidence of malignant melanoma, one of the deadliest cancers, continues to increase. Here we tested connexin (Cx) expression in primary melanocytes, melanoma cell lines and in a common nevus, dysplastic nevus, and thin, thick, and metastatic melanoma tumor progression series involving the tumor...
