Abstract excerpt
It has been shown that ovarian low-grade serous carcinoma evolves out of a stepwise progression from benign serous cystadenoma to serous borderline tumor (SBT) to micropapillary serous carcinoma (MPSC), and that BRAF activation is a very early somatic event in the tumorigenesis. We postulated that BRAF could be a SBT susceptibility gene, and investigated both germ line and somatic mutations of BRAF V599E in 104...
