Background During embryonic development Wnt family members and bone morphogenetic proteins (BMPs) cooperatively induce epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) in the neural crest. Wnt and BMPs are reactivated during malignant transformation in melanoma. We previously demonstrated that the BMP-antagonist noggin blocked the EMT phenotype of melanoma cells in the neural crest and malignant invasion of...
Malignant melanoma has the highest propensity to metastasize to the brain of all primary neoplasms in adults. Here, we describe invasive growth and the development of melanoma metastases from suspensions of human melanoma cells in the brain of the chick embryo. Patient‐derived melanoma cells and established melanoma cell lines were injected into the rhombencephalic brain vesicle of the two‐day‐chick...
