“…In particular, the upregulation of TP53 and downregulation of oncogenes, such as MYC/Max, MYB, and FOXM, characterize the A-like cluster, while the downregulation of TP53 and upregulation of MYC/Max, MYB, FOXM1, and E2F1 in AB-, B-, and C-like clusters are consistent with the high aggressiveness of B3 and TC tumors. Furthermore, this study highlighted that types A, AB, B, and TC are not a continuum of diseases, but are instead distinct biological entities (5,19), Recently, metaplastic thymomas were reported to harbor the YAP1-MAML2 translocation, whereas 6% of pretreated types B2 and B3 and a combined TC and B3 thymoma (but not in thymoma and "pure" TCs) may be associated with KMT2A-MAML2 translocation (7).…”
