Research Article: Exogenous Hydrogen Sulfide Induces A Melanoma Cell Apoptosis Through Overactivation of the Unfolded Protein Response
Introduction:
Melanoma is caused by the malignant transformation of melanocytes and is a fatal type of skin cancer that is resistant to chemo- and radiotherapy. Each year, approximately , individuals are diagnosed with cutaneous melanomas worldwide. About half of the patients diagnosed with melanomas have BRAF mutations. Combined treatment with BRAF inhibitors (such as dabrafenib and vemurafenib) and mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) inhibitors (such as trametinib and cobimetinib) improves the treatment response and…
