BAP1-Inactivated Melanocytic Tumors Demonstrate Prominent Centrosome Amplification and Associated Loss of Primary Cilia

Although centrosome amplification does not absolutely correlate with loss of primary cilia in melanocytic neoplasms, absence of BAP1 exacerbates the phenotype. Moreover, aberrant centrosome and cilia formation are likely critical in the pathogenesis of other BAP1-inactivated tumors. This article is protected by copyright. All rights reserved.
