Identification of putative biomarkers for Infantile Hemangiomas and Propanolol treatment via data integration

Infantile hemangiomas are the most common type of benigh tumors in early childhood, and propanolol is a standard treatment with yet unknown mechanism of action. In this study, we identify putative biomarkers for infantile hemangioma stages (proliferative and involution) in the context of propanolol treatment. Tissue was collected from children with hemangiomas. Patient's normal skin from demographically matched children were used as controls.
