Aberrant BRAF splicing as an alternative mechanism for oncogenic B‐Raf activation in thyroid carcinoma
13 Nov 2008
Abstract excerpt
Activating BRAF mutations have recently been reported in 28-83% of papillary thyroid carcinomas (PTCs). However, it is not known whether aberrant BRAF splicing occurs in thyroid carcinoma. To investigate aberrant BRAF splicing and its association with BRAF mutation in thyroid tumours, we studied aberrant BRAF splicing and BRAF mutation from 68 thyroid tumours. BRAF(V600E) mutation was detected in 20 of 43 PTCs...
