SMAD4 and central nervous system cancer: Results of the present study detected one novel insertion in NRAS and one novel deletion in HNF1A genes, a novel missense variant in the TP53 gene, and two novel missense variants of SND1. Hotspot mutations in other cancer driver genes, such as PTEN, ATM, SMAD4, SMARCB1, STK11, NPM1, CDKN2A, and EGFR, which are frequently affected in gliomas, were not found in the tumor of the present study.
