Molecular Biology of the Ewing’s Sarcoma/Primitive Neuroectodermal Tumor Family

de Alava, Enrique, Gerald, William L.·2000·Journal of Clinical Oncology

Abstract

ABSTRACT: Ewing’s sarcoma (ES) and primitive neuroectodermal tumor (PNET) are members of a tumor family consistently associated with chromosomal translocation and functional fusion of the EWS gene to any of several structurally related transcription factor genes. Similar gene fusion events occur in other mesenchymal and hematopoietic tumors and are tumor-specific. The resulting novel transcription factor–like chimeric proteins are believed to contribute to tumor biology by aberrant regulation of gene expression altering critical controls of cell proliferation and differentiation. These tumor-specific molecular rearrangements are useful for primary diagnosis, may provide prognostic information, and present potential therapeutic targets. The recent advances in our understanding of the molecular biology of ES and PNET represent a paradigm for the application of the basic biology of neoplasia to clinical management of patients.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
