Combined activation of MAP kinase pathway and β-catenin signaling cause deep penetrating nevi

Combined activation of MAP kinase pathway and β-catenin signaling cause deep penetrating nevi

Deep penetrating nevi (DPN) are unusual melanocytic neoplasms with unknown genetic drivers. Here the authors show that majority of DPN harbor activating mutations in the β-catenin and the MAP-kinase pathways; this characteristic can help in the classification and grading of these distinctive neoplas...
