Abstract:
Comprehensive characterization of the mutational landscape of hidradenoma papilliferum (HP) identified PIK3CA and PIK3R1 as mutually exclusive driver genes. Taken together with the mutation of other genes involved in phosphoinositide 3-kinase/AKT signalling, our findings confirm a key role of the alteration of this pathway in the pathogenesis of HP. The absence of a significant presence of human papillomavirus (HPV) sequences suggests that HPV is not involved in the aetiology of HP.
