What is the Role of Histology in Identifying FUS-DDIT3?
Histology plays a vital role in the identification and characterization of the FUS-DDIT3 fusion gene. Tissue samples are stained and examined under a microscope to identify the unique histological features of myxoid liposarcoma, such as a myxoid stroma and a characteristic vascular pattern. The presence of the FUS-DDIT3 fusion gene can be further confirmed using immunohistochemistry and other molecular methods.
