Abstract excerpt
Uveal melanoma (UM) is a deadly ocular malignancy with well-described genetic alterations that predict disease outcome. However, our current understanding of the biological underpinnings of high-risk uveal melanoma progression remains relatively limited. Using RNA expression profiles from 250 patients with UM, we identified 12 novel biomarkers associated with high-risk UM, with protein expression level validation...
