Abstract excerpt
OBJECTIVES: Mycosis fungoides (MF) is the most common cutaneous T-cell lymphoma; it arises from tissue-resident memory T-cells (TRM). In the present study, we investigated potential functional genetic variations that may predispose MF development. METHODS: A case-control study was conducted using whole-exome sequencing, with a focus on genes that are essential to TRM function. RESULTS: We included 21 patients and...
