“…Hypermethylation of specific tumor suppressor genes as well as those involved in cell-cycle regulation, DNA repair, cell signaling, transcription, and apoptosis have been reproducibly described in cutaneous melanoma (63). The cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitor-2A (CDKN2A) promoter has been shown to be hypermethylated in a substantial fraction of primary cutaneous melanoma samples and is associated with both increased Ki-67 index and reduced patient survival (64).…”

“…These mechanisms include modification of DNA (hypo-and hypermethylation), changes in DNA packaging (histone modifications by acetylation, methylation, phosphorylation and ubiquitination) and post-translational modifications, such as RNA-associated silencing [48].…”

“…1,2 O melanoma maligno, tal como outras neoplasias comuns, tem aberrações cromossómicas frequentes e características que o distinguem de nevos pigmentados. Tipicamente os nevos melanociticos não têm aberrações cromossómicas ou têm um número restrito de alterações genéticas sem sobreposição às do melanoma.…”
