Transcriptome Analysis Reveals the Molecular Immunological Characteristics of Lesions in Patients with Halo Nevi When Compared to Stable Vitiligo, Normal Nevocytic Nevi and Cutaneous Melanoma

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Given their similar appearance and histology, halo nevi (HN) were considered as a type of vitiligo. However, whether HN have stronger immune response than stable vitiligo (VL) remains unclear. In addition, the molecular alterations in HN compared with normal nevocytic nevi (NN) and primary cutaneous melanoma (MM) must be determined. This study aimed to systematically characterize the molecular...
