Somatic activating BRAF variants cause isolated lymphatic malformations
15 Mar 2022
Abstract excerpt
Somatic activating variants in PIK3CA, the gene that encodes the p110α catalytic subunit of phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3K), have been previously detected in ∼80% of lymphatic malformations (LMs).1,2 We report the presence of somatic activating variants in BRAF in individuals with LMs that do not possess pathogenic PIK3CA variants. The BRAF substitution p.Val600Glu (c.1799T>A), one of the most common driver...
