The Need for Neddylation: A Key to Achieving NED in Uveal Melanoma

Clin Cancer Res. 2018 Aug 1;24(15):3477-3479. doi: 10.1158/1078-0432.CCR-18-0020. Epub 2018 Apr 2.

Abstract

The ability of uveal melanoma cells to enter and exit dormancy plays a fundamental role in the development of metastatic disease. Neddylation blockade is a promising strategy to prolong tumor dormancy via impaired angiogenesis and prevent the establishment of metastases via elimination of cancer stem-like cells.
