Recently, we have reported the differential regulation of a novel gene, namely ASK/Dbf4, in melanoma and suggested upregulation of ASK/Dbf4 as a novel molecular determinant with prognostic relevance that confers a proliferative advantage in cutaneous melanoma.
In summary, we report the differential regulation of a novel gene, namely ASK/Dbf4, in melanoma and suggest that up-regulation of ASK/Dbf4 is a novel molecular determinant with prognostic relevance that confers a proliferative advantage in cutaneous melanoma.
