Abstract excerpt
Although the majority of gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GISTs) possess KIT mutations that induce constitutive signal transduction, the clinical outcomes are variable. The ETS translocation variant 1 (ETV1) gene encodes a transcription factor that is reported to cooperate with KIT in GISTs. However, the clinical role of ETV1 is largely unknown. The aim of this study was to examine ETV1 expression and its...
