Published: March 2023

Melanoma is a tumour that arises from the uncontrolled proliferation of melanocytes (pigment-producing cells) found in the skin (cutaneous melanoma and digital melanoma), mucosal surfaces (oral melanoma), and the eye (ocular melanoma) [...].

Digital Interventions for Promoting Skin Self-Examination Behaviors of Melanoma Survivors: A Systematic Review.

Cancer Nurs

December 2024

Author Affiliations: Henan Vocational College of Nursing, Anyang, China (Ms Li); School of Nursing and Health, Henan University (Mr Yang), Kaifeng City, China; Nursing Department, Jiaozuo People's Hospital, Jiaozuo, China (Ms Qu); Director's Office, Zhengzhou Sixth People's Hospital, Zhengzhou, China (Ms Fu); and Nursing Department, Zhengzhou Third People's Hospital, Zhengzhou, China (Ms Niu).

Background: Regular and thorough skin self-examination (SSE) is an important strategy to reduce mortality among melanoma survivors. However, less than a quarter of melanoma survivors participate in skin self-examination.

Objective: The aim of this study was to systematically review the effectiveness of digital interventions on SSE-related practices in melanoma survivors.

Canine oral melanoma (COM) is a promising target for immunomodulatory therapies aimed at enhancing the immune system's antitumor response. Given that adipose-derived mesenchymal stem cells (Ad-MSCs) possess immunomodulatory properties through cytokine release, we hypothesized that co-culturing Ad-MSCs and canine peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) could stimulate interleukin (IL) production against melanoma cell lines (MCCLs) and help identify therapeutic targets. This study evaluated IL-2, IL-8, and IL-12 expressions in co-culture with MCCL, Ad-MSCs, and PBMCs and assessed the relationship between gene expression, cell viability, and migration.

An 11-year-old spayed female Beagle presented with tenesmus and was identified with a rectal wall mass. Diagnostic imaging (abdominal ultrasound and computed tomography) localised the mass in the right rectal wall and documented no evidence of metastatic disease. Subsequently, the dog underwent surgery for tumour excision.

TIPE () has been identified as an oncogene and participates in tumor biology. However, how its role in the metabolism of tumor cells during melanoma development remains unclear. Here, we demonstrated that TIPE promoted glycolysis by interacting with pyruvate kinase M2 (PKM2) in melanoma.

Surgery is considered the gold standard for treating melanoma, but the high recurrence rate after surgery still remains as a major challenge. Therefore, using doxorubicin (DOX) as a model drug, this study investigated the 3D printing of anticancer drug-loaded hydrogel blend scaffolds for inhibiting post-operation melanoma recurrence and for promoting tissue regeneration. Three-dimensional printing could successfully produce methacrylate-modified chitosan (CSMA) and methylcellulose (MC) hydrogel blend scaffolds.
