Canine melanomas: MiTF and p38 expression and its correlation with the presence of lymphocytic infiltrate, proliferation, and survival

Key Points

• Survival rates are linked to levels of MiTF and p38 expression in canine melanomas, indicating significant prognostic value.
• Canine melanomas with higher lymphocytic infiltrate showed distinct patterns of proliferation and overall survival.
• Analysis conducted through examining tissue samples from canine melanoma cases to evaluate molecular markers and immune response.
• Findings may enable better therapeutic strategies by understanding the relationship between these biomarkers and melanoma progression.
