Herein, we evaluated a cohort of 52 SFTs/hemangiopericytomas (HPCs) by whole-exome sequencing (one case) and multiplex RT-PCR (all 52 cases), and identified 12 different NAB2-STAT6 fusion variants in 48 cases (92 %K NAB2 protein, human (NLM Chemicals) %K Repressor Proteins (NLM Chemicals) %K STAT6 Transcription Factor (NLM Chemicals) %K STAT6 protein, human (NLM Chemicals) %F PUB:(DE-HGF)16 %9 Journal Article %$ pmid:24513261 %R 10.1016/j.ajpath.2013.12.016 %U https://inrepo02.dkfz.de/record/119617
