The Stiles-Crawford effect in retinitis pigmentosa.

abstract：Purpose:Uveal melanoma (UM) is the most common primary intraocular malignancy in adults and approximately half of those diagnosed will die of metastasis. This study investigates whether UM progression is driven by a subpopulation of stem-like cells, termed "cancer stem cells" (CSCs). Methods:Expression of postulated s...
