Genetics of melanocytic nevi.

Pigment cell & melanoma research - 1 Nov 2015

Roh Mi Ryung, Eliades Philip, Gupta Sameer, Tsao Hensin

Abstract excerpt

Melanocytic nevi are a benign clonal proliferation of cells expressing the melanocytic phenotype, with heterogeneous clinical and molecular characteristics. In this review, we discuss the genetics of nevi by salient nevi subtypes: congenital melanocytic nevi, acquired melanocytic nevi, blue nevi, and Spitz nevi. While the molecular etiology of nevi has been less thoroughly studied than melanoma, it is clear that...
