PMEL and neoplasm: We identified UM-associated hybrid cells based on co-expression of melanocytic tumor proteins: Microphthalmia-associated transcription factor (MITF), Tyrosinase (TYR), Melan-A (MLANA), premelanosome protein (PMEL, GP100), 5-hydroxytryptamine receptor 2B (HTR2B) and the pan-leukocyte marker CD45 (Fig. 1).
