Abstract excerpt
We studied gene expression in 18 melanocytic nevi with and four nevi without the V600E mutation in the BRAF gene using HG-U133A 2.0 microarray with 22,277 transcripts. Data analysis revealed 92 genes up-regulated and 105 genes down-regulated in nevi with the mutation compared to nevi without mutation. Pathway analysis showed that differentially regulated genes mapped to 10 genetic networks. The major network...
