Downregulation of the ubiquitin ligase RNF125 underlies resistance of melanoma cells to BRAF inhibitors via JAK1 deregulation
Despite the remarkable clinical response of melanoma harboring BRAF mutations to BRAF
inhibitors (BRAFi), most tumors become resistant. Here, we identified the downregulation of …
