Silencing of CEBPB-AS1 modulates CEBPB expression and resensitizes BRAF-inhibitor resistant melanoma cells to vemurafenib

Rita Valador Fernandes

Introduction of targeted therapy in the treatment of metastatic cutaneous malignant melanoma (CMM) has improved clinical outcome during the last years. However, only in a subset of the CMM patients, this will lead to long-term effects. CEBPB is a transcrip ...
