Melanoma - Gene Research Should Pave Way To Targeted Treatment
A study published in Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences (PNAS), reveals that elevated expression of a gene in the deadly Skin CancerMelanoma can raise the mortality risk from the tumor, making it a potentially new target for treating melanomas that express high levels of this gene. The study, entitled "Pleckstrin Homology Domain-Interacting Protein (PHIP) as a Marker and Mediator of Melanoma Metastasis", was conducted by researchers at California Pacific Medical Center Research Institute (CPMCRI), part of the Sutter Health network... read more..
