AKT3 and neoplasm: The WES of 17 ITPNs reveals common copy number variants (CNVs) broadly distributed across the genome, with recurrent chromosomal deletions primarily in 1p36 and 9p21 affecting the tumor suppressors CHD5 and CDKN2A, respectively, and gains in 1q affecting the prominent oncogene AKT3. The identified somatic nucleotide variants (SNVs) involve few core signaling pathways despite high genetic heterogeneity with diverse mutational spectra: Chromatin remodeling, the cell cycle, and DNA damage/repair.
