Research Abstract |
RET-transgenic mice, which develop malignant melanoma, are useful for finding biomarkers which express in the serum or urine correlated with tumor progression and/or metastasis. We found that chemokin (C-X-C motif) ligand, CXCL10 and CXCL16 are significantly increased in serum of RET-transgenic mice which has malignant tumor. Our findings suggest that these proteins can be candidates for new biomarkers of melanoma.
