In the last few years TAM receptors, which are a unique family of receptor tyrosine kinase (RTK), have acquired increasing importance. The aim of our study was to evaluate Mer and Axl TAM receptors expression in malignant melanoma (MM) samples, in order to find clinicopathological features that could explain the different biological behavior of MM. Mer an Axl Tam receptors are a further important pathway that, in the future, could be more studied for the pathogenesis of MM, in order to expand the spectrum of relative target treatments.

Abstract
In the last few years TAM receptors, which are a unique family of receptor tyrosine kinase (RTK), have acquired increasing importance. The aim of our study was to evaluate Mer and Axl TAM receptors expression in malignant melanoma (MM) samples, in order to find clinicopathological features that could explain the different biological behavior of MM. Mer an Axl Tam receptors are a further important pathway that, in the future, could be more studied for the pathogenesis of MM, in order to expand the spectrum of relative target treatments.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
