Abstract excerpt

We analyzed the immunohistochemical expression of the metastasis-associated protein, CD44v3, in 46 primary human malignant melanomas (MMs). This is the first time that the v3 splice variant of CD44 was found to be expressed in human melanomas (15 of 46), ranging from 3% to 35% of the cell population in the positive tumors. The expression of CD44v3 was observed in tumors thicker than 1.0 mm, and one-third of these...
