Title: Melanoma molecular subtypes: unifying and paradoxical results.

Authors: Thomas, Nancy E; Kanetsky, Peter A; Begg, Colin B; Conway, Kathleen; Berwick, Marianne

Published In J Invest Dermatol, (2010 Jan)

Abstract: In this issue, Hacker and colleagues provide further evidence that molecular subtypes of malignant melanoma may develop along divergent pathways. The authors did not find an association between somatic BRAF-mutant melanoma and germline melanocortin-1 receptor (MC1R) gene status. We discuss this seeming paradox in light of previous studies demonstrating strong associations.
