DOI: 10.1093/jnen/nlz086
Abstract: MAPK pathway activation has been recurrently observed in desmoplastic infantile ganglioglioma/astrocytoma (DIG/DIA) with reported disproportionally low mutation allele frequencies relative to the apparent high tumor content, suggesting that MAPK pathway alterations may be subclonal. We… read more here.
