In a study published in the December 15 issue of Cancer Research, the laboratory of Mary J.C. Hendrix hypothesized that cross-talk between the Notch and Nodal pathways can explain the reactivation of Nodal in aggressive metastatic melanoma cells. Here they demonstrate a molecular link between Notch and Nodal signaling in aggressive melanoma, via the activity of a Nodal enhancer element.
