Identification of novel <i>FGFR2::TXLNB</i> Fusion in a polymorphous low‐grade neuroepithelial tumor of the young

We report a novel FGFR2::TXLNB fusion in a child with hippocampal PLNTY. This fusion likely drives tumorigenesis via homodimerization and activation of MAPK/PI3K pathways, expanding PLNTY's molecular spectrum and suggesting a potential therapeutic target.

Abstract

We report a novel FGFR2::TXLNB fusion in a child with hippocampal PLNTY. This fusion likely drives tumorigenesis via homodimerization and activation of MAPK/PI3K pathways, expanding PLNTY's molecular spectrum and suggesting a potential therapeutic target.
