Cancer&Entry Information
| Cancer Name | plexiform fibromyxoma |
| ICD-0-3 | NA |
| Methods | Microarray, Western blot etc. |
| Sample | cancer tissues, cell line (HEK-293T) |
| Expression Pattern | up-regulated |
| Function Description | We showed that the truncated GLI1 protein is overexpressed and retains its capacity to transcriptionally activate its target genes. A specific FISH assay was developed to detect the novel MALAT1-GLI1 translocation in formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded (FFPE) material. This resulted in the identification of two additional cases with this fusion and two cases with polysomy of the GLI1 gene. Finally, immunohistochemistry revealed that the GLI1 protein is exclusively overexpressed in those cases that harbour GLI1/12q13 genomic alterations. In conclusion, overexpression of GLI1 through a recurrent MALAT1-GLI1 translocation or GLI1 up-regulation delineates a pathogenically distinct subgroup of plexiform fibromyxomas with activation of the Sonic Hedgehog signalling pathway |
