Additional alterations, albeit without prognostic power, characterized each subtype including high E2F2 and TGFβ signalling and CXCL8 expression in BL2, high IFNα and IFNγ signalling and CTLA4 expression in IM, and high EGFR signalling in MSL, and may be targeted for therapy. This evidence concerns the gene CXCL8 and multiple symmetric lipomatosis.
