Abstract excerpt
Prognosis in patients with uveal melanoma is poor as approximately half of all tumors metastasize and currently there are no effective treatments for disseminated disease. Differences in invasiveness between uveal melanomas could therefore be of major significance regarding clinical outcome. To identify genes associated with invasive potential, we have used microarray expression profiling combined with phenotypic...
