Attempting to Solve the Pigmented Epithelioid Melanocytoma (PEM) Conundrum: PRKAR1A Inactivation Can Occur in Different Genetic Backgrounds (Common, Blue, and Spitz Subgroups) With Variation in Their Clinicopathologic Characteristics. (PubMed, Am J Surg Pathol)
These results could potentially shift the concept of PRKAR1A-inactivated melanocytoma, changing from a rather unified model to a more complex one, including genetic subgroup variations with clinical and morphologic specificities. The genetic background of PRKAR1A-inactivated melanocytic tumors should be systematically explored to better understand the extent and clinical behavior of these complex lesions.

Chordoid glioma: a clinicopathological study (PubMed, Zhonghua Bing Li Xue Za Zhi)
Chordoid gliomas have relatively distinguishing clinical and histopathological features. PRKCA gene mutation in chordoid gliomas can be considered as a biomarker for the diagnosis and differential diagnosis of chordoid gliomas, and may provide a direction for future targeted therapy.

PRKCA D463H Mutation in Chordoid Glioma of the Third Ventricle: A Cohort of 16 Cases, Including Two Cases Harboring BRAFV600E Mutation. (PubMed, J Neuropathol Exp Neurol)
Eleven were alive at the most recent follow-up (range: 2-58 months). These data indicate that PRKCA mutation was a good diagnostic marker for CG and additionally suggest that histiocyte-like features can be present in CG in association with BRAF mutations.

RNA-Sequencing and Somatic Mutation Status of Adrenocortical Tumors: Novel Pathogenetic Insights. (PubMed, J Clin Endocrinol Metab)
MACS-CPAs and EIAs showed a similar transcriptome profile, independently of the genetic background, whereas most CS-CPAs clustered together. Still unrevealed molecular alterations in the cAMP/PKA or Wnt/beta catenin pathways might be involved in the pathogenesis of adrenocortical tumors.
