Aberrant Fatty Acid-Binding Protein-7 Gene Expression in Cutaneous Malignant Melanoma

Fatty acid-binding protein-7 (FABP7) has been shown to be expressed in cutaneous melanoma; however, its role in tumor progression is unclear. Expression of FABP7 was assessed during melanoma progression through assessment of various clinicopathology stages of primary tumor progression and metastasis...

Zusammenfassung:Fatty acid-binding protein-7 (FABP7) has been shown to be expressed in cutaneous melanoma; however, its role in tumor progression is unclear. Expression of FABP7 was assessed during melanoma progression through assessment of various clinicopathology stages of primary tumor progression and metastasis. FABP7 mRNA was highly expressed in 60 of 87 (69%) primary melanomas, compared with significant (P
