Mutational analysis of <i>FOXL2</i> codon 134 in granulosa cell tumour of ovary and other human cancers
19 Jan 2010
Abstract excerpt
A missense somatic mutation in the FOXL2 gene affecting codon 134 has recently been reported in granulosa cell tumour (GCT) and thecoma of the ovary. Such a recurrent nature of the mutation strongly suggests that the FOXL2 mutation may play an important role in the development of ovarian sex cord-stromal tumours. The aim of this study was to characterize the FOXL2 mutation in human tumour tissues. We analysed...
