Loss of ARID1A protein expression occurs as an early event in ovarian clear-cell carcinoma development and frequently coexists with PIK3CA mutations : Modern Pathology



ARID1A is a recently identified tumor suppressor gene that is mutated in ~50% of ovarian clear-cell carcinomas. This mutation is associated with loss of ARID1A protein expression as assessed by immunohistochemistry. The present study aimed at determining the timing of the loss of ARID1A protein expression during the development of ovarian clear-cell carcinoma and assessing its relevance in correlation to PIK3CA gene mutations......
