PTK2 Promotes Uveal Melanoma Metastasis by Activating Epithelial-to-Mesenchymal Transition

2021-09-30

Abstract excerpt

<title>Abstract</title> <p><bold>Background: </bold>Uveal melanoma (UM) is an aggressive primary intraocular tumor in adults, with high metastatic capacity and high morbidity. However, the mechanisms of UM metastasis have not been clearly elucidated.<bold>Methods: </bold>The PTK2 expression and activation were performed in the Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) database and 25 patients of UM. The role of PTK2 in promotin...
