Expression of c-FLIP in malignant melanoma, and its relationship with the clinicopathological features of the disease

Summary

Background.  Numerous molecular events have been associated with the development of malignant melanoma (MM). The cellular FLICE-like inhibitory protein (c-FLIP) was originally identified as an inhibitor of death-receptor signalling through competition with FADD-like interleukin-1β-converting enzyme (FLICE; also known as caspase-8) for recruitment to the FAS-associated death domain (FADD), and it has been suggested recently that c-FLIP is required for the survival and proliferation of various cell types.


Aim.  To investigate the relationship of c-FLIP expression with the clinicopathological features of MM.


Methods.  Immunohistochemical staining with anti-c-FLIP antibody was performed on tissue samples ...
