Single genetic mutations can account for melanocytic naevi.

The British journal of dermatology - 1 May 2005

Blewitt R W

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: The nature of melanocytic naevi is unknown notwithstanding their considerable significance for clinician and pathologist and despite the wealth of existing knowledge about melanocyte biology. OBJECTIVES: To investigate how far a simple mutational model can explain the clinical and pathological features of melanocytic naevi, in particular their pattern of onset and frequency. METHODS: I have...
