  1. NOTE: All annotated genes listed above with a < 2 indicates that any difference between tumors for each comparative analysis was less than 2-fold. Underlined numbers indicate the greatest change in gene expression across varying PCM tumor thickness for each gene. Abbreviations: MIS, melanoma-in-situ, Thin, thin melanomas < 1.0 mm in Breslow's thickness, I.M., intermediate thickness between 1–4 mm, with thick melanomas > 4 mm. PCM, primary cutaneous melanoma.
