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 KW - NAB2 protein, human (NLM Chemicals) KW - Repressor Proteins (NLM Chemicals) KW - STAT6 Transcription Factor (NLM Chemicals) KW - STAT6 protein, human (NLM Chemicals) LB - PUB:(DE-HGF)16 C6 - pmid:24513261 DO - DOI:10.1016/j.ajpath.2013.12.016 UR - https://inrepo02.dkfz.de/record/119617 ER -
