Serum from morbidly obese patients affects melanoma cell behavior in vitro

Abstract Here we examined whether serum from obese patients could create a growth-enhancing microenvironment that alters gene expression in BRAF- and NRAS-mutated melanoma cell lines. SK-Mel-28 (BRAF-mutated) and Sk-Mel-147 (NRAS-mutated) cells were treated with pooled serum from 10 severely obese p...
