PLA1A expression as a diagnostic marker of BRAF-mutant metastasis in melanoma cancer
Abstract BRAF and NRAS are the most reported mutations associated to melanomagenesis. The lack of accurate diagnostic markers in response to therapeutic treatment in BRAF/NRAS-driven melanomagenesis is one of the main challenges in melanoma personalized therapy. In order to assess the diagnostic val...

Abstract BRAF and NRAS are the most reported mutations associated to melanomagenesis.
