Our aim was to investigate the role of oxidative stress markers in melanoma. Materials and Methods: We characterized the immunohistochemical expression of Nrf2, kelch-like ECH-associated protein 1 (Keap1), BRAF(V600E), 8-hydroxy-2'-deoxyguanosine (8-OHdG) and nitrotyrosine in 36 nevi, 14 lentigo maligna and 71 malignant melanoma...
