Our results support a predominant role for C-HEV in the recruitment of lymphocytes in cutaneous melanomas, mediated by CCL19 and CCL21, whereas the density of F-HEV strongly correlates with tumour regression, Therefore, cuboidal and flat HEVs may serve as indicators of the active and late quiescent phases, respectively, of tumour regression in cutaneous malignant melanoma.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
