Abstract excerpt
AIMS: Recent advances in next-generation sequencing have made it clear that clonal expansion of cells harbouring driver gene mutations occurs in physiologically normal epithelium. Molecular analysis of tubal epithelium has been almost exclusively confined to the TP53 pathway, which is involved in serous carcinogenesis. Other oncogenic events have not been explored in detail. Here, we report the linear expansion...
