This paper adds to the growing evidence for the importance of Sox10 upregulation in the progression of melanoma from giant congenital nevi. Sox10 is upregulated in human congenital nevi and in the mouse model of hyperpigmentation and melanoma. Remarkably, Sox10 haploinsufficiency essentially reverts hyperpigmentation and, import melanoma...
