Melanocytic nevi represent benign clonal proliferations of the melanocytes in the skin that usually remain stable in size and behavior or disappear during life. Infrequently, melanocytic nevi undergo malignant transformation to melanoma. Understanding molecular and cellular mechanisms underlying oncogene-induced senescence should help identify pathways underlying melanoma development, leading to the development of new strategies for melanoma prevention and early detection.
黑素细胞痣是皮肤中黑素细胞的良性克隆性增殖,其大小和行为通常保持稳定,或在生命过程中消失。黑素细胞痣很少发生恶性转化为黑色素瘤。了解癌基因诱导衰老的分子和细胞机制应有助于确定黑色素瘤发生发展的潜在途径,从而开发出预防和早期检测黑色素瘤的新策略。
