Biallelic alterations of the large tumor suppressor 1 (LATS1) gene in infiltrative, but not superficial, basal cell carcinomas in a Japanese patient with nevoid basal cell carcinoma syndrome.

Abstract excerpt

The present study was conducted to address the molecular pathogenesis underlying the progression of basal cell carcinoma (BCC) in a nevoid basal cell carcinoma syndrome (NBCCS) patient. We analyzed infiltrative BCCs that invaded the subcutaneous tissue of the scalp and penetrated the skull in a 61-year-old Japanese female. Whole-exome sequencing validated by Sanger sequencing was applied to assess the...
