Expression of Bcl-2 family members in human melanocytes, in melanoma metastases and in melanoma cell lines.

abstract：:Staging of melanoma patients by means of whole body functional imaging in a single evaluation session using positron emission tomography (PET) with fluorine-18- labelled deoxy-d-glucose (FDG) as a metabolic tracer has created much interest over the last decade. After enthusiastic pilot studies, more attention has been...
