It is very likely that knockdown of merlin not only encourages melanoma mobile proliferation but also minimizes activation of MST1/two kinases/ Hippo signaling induced by the stresses derived from the tumor microenvironment and for that reason, melanomas with reduced merlin amounts
Elevated merlin levels also caused a decrease in tumor cell migration (Figure 4C) and drastically inhibited their ability to grow in an anchorage independent way (Figure 4D). Regular with our…
