The genetic landscape of cutaneous T-cell lymphomas analyzed by sequencing high throughput techniques shows a heterogeneous somatic mutational profile and genomic copy number variations in the TCR signaling effectors, the NF-κB elements, DNA damage/repair elements, JAK/STAT pathway elements and epigenetic modifiers. This evidence concerns the gene NFKB1 and primary cutaneous T-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma.
