Abstract excerpt
Germline and somatic pathogenic variants (PVs) in DICER1 , encoding a miRNA biogenesis protein, are associated with a wide variety of highly specific pathologic entities. The lung tumors pleuropulmonary blastoma, pulmonary blastoma (PB), and well-differentiated fetal lung adenocarcinoma (WDFLAC) are all known to harbor DICER1 biallelic variants (loss of function and/or somatic hotspot missense mutations), and all...
