Abstract 2358: Impact pathway analysis of FOXC2-correlated genes in melanoma: A meta-analysis approach to understand the tumor-promoting functions of the FOXC2 transcription factor
Abstract:Melanoma is a cancer that arises from pigment-producing melanocytes in the skin. Because of the increasing incidence of melanoma and its resistance to many therapies, insights into melanoma progression are needed. FOXC2, a member of the forkhead box family of transcription factors, has been shown to have oncogenic activity in many epithelial cancer types, and we have recently reported a role for FOXC2 in melanoma progression as well. To gain insight into the role of FOXC2 in melanoma progression, we analyzed p… Show more
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.
