Coexistent ARID1A–PIK3CA mutations promote ovarian clear-cell tumorigenesis through pro-tumorigenic inflammatory cytokine signalling
Ovarian clear-cell carcinoma (OCCC) is an aggressive form of ovarian cancer with high
ARID1A mutation rates. Here we present a mutant mouse model of OCCC. We find that …
