Abstract excerpt
In our study, we investigated the role of the chromatin remodeler ATRX in the progression of cutaneous melanoma. We analyzed ATRX protein expression in over 350 melanomas, correlating findings with clinical data, tumor proliferation rates, and vessel density. Additionally, we examined whole-genome sequencing data from 70 melanoma metastases to assess ATRX genetic alterations and compared these with protein...
