(E) Heatmap depicting mRNA levels of SMAD3-signature in BRAF(V600E) non-treated melanoma patients (dataset from TCGA; SKCM, BRAF(V600E) mutated: n=118). Three pigmentation genes (MITF, MLANA and TYR) have been added to highlight the differentiation states of tumors. ~20% of tumors are considered as dedifferentiated tumors (red box) with a high SMAD3-signature.
