HLA class I is expressed in 75-85 per cent of uveal melanoma and cytoplasmic c-myc expression has been reported in 78 per cent of uveal melanoma. In skin melanoma, an inverse relationship has been observed between HLA class I expression and c-myc. The purpose of this study was to determine whether a
Tumor necrosis factor (TNF-a) was compared to immune interferon (IFNq) for its ability to modulate the expression and shedding of HLA antigens, of intercellular adhesion molecule l (ICAM l) and of high-molecular-weight melanomaassociated antigen (HMW MAA) by a panel of melanoma cell lines. The latte
Uveal melanoma is the most common primary intra-ocular tumor in adults and has a high mortality rate due to liver metastases, for which no effective treatment is available. To investigate whether immunotherapy might be feasible in uveal melanoma, the HLA class I surface expression of 6 uveal melanom
