Core Tip |
The genetic events that predispose benign polyps to carcinoma are rarely explored in gastric cancer. We studied a rare case that progressed from benign gastric polyposis to gastric cancer and disclosed a monoallelic germline mutation (D1359Y) at Fanconi’s anemia gene, which may contribute to the phenotype. Comparing the genetic events between benign and malignant gastric polyps, several recurrent mutations in DNA methylation (TET1, V873I), the β-catenin pathway (CTNNB1, S45F) and RHO signaling pathway (PLEKHG5, R203C) were identified. |
