MDM2 amplification in well- and dedifferentiated liposarcoma, FUS/EWSR1-DDIT3 gene fusions in myxoid liposarcoma, RB1 loss in spindle cell/pleomorphic lipoma).
These include MDM2 and CDK4 amplification in well-differentiated and dedifferentiated liposarcomas as well as FUS-DDIT3 rearrangements in myxoid liposarcoma.

The identification of signature cytogenetic and molecular alterations for certain lesions, such as PLAG1 gene rearrangement in lipoblastoma and FUS-DDIT3 fusion in myxoid liposarcoma, has been helpful in approaching these neoplasms and aiding in confirming the diagnosis.

Identification of inhibitors regulating cell proliferation and FUS-DDIT3 expression in myxoid liposarcoma using combined DNA, mRNA, and protein analyses.
Prior studies of lipoblastoma-like tumor have evaluated PLAG1, HMGA2, and RB1 immunohistochemistry and DDIT3 rearrangement status, with results supporting its distinction from lipoblastoma and myxoid liposarcoma.
FUS-DDIT3 dependency and biological function of the IGF-IR/PI3K/Akt signaling cascade were analyzed using a HT1080 fibrosarcoma-based myxoid liposarcoma tumor model and multiple tumor-derived myxoid liposarcoma cell lines.
EWSR1 rearrangements were first identified in Ewing sarcoma, but the spectrum of EWSR1-rearranged neoplasms now includes many soft tissue tumour subtypes including desmoplastic small round cell tumour (DSRCT), myxoid liposarcoma (MLPS), extraskeletal myxoid chondrosarcoma (EMC), angiomatoid fibrous histiocytoma (AFH), clear cell sarcoma (CCS) and myoepithelial neoplasms.
This fusion gene as a hallmark of MLPS is very useful for differential diagnosis from other soft tissue sarcomas, and the associated protein, FUS-DDIT3, performs an important role in the phenotypic selection of targeted multipotent mesenchymal cells during oncogenesis.
We here investigate the functional role of FUS-DDIT3 in IGF-IR/PI3K/Akt signaling driving myxoid liposarcoma pathogenesis.<b>Experimental Design:</b> Immunohistochemical evaluation of key effectors of the IGF-IR/PI3K/Akt signaling axis was performed in a comprehensive cohort of myxoid liposarcoma specimens.

Here we studied a subgroup of sarcomas and leukaemias characterized by the FET (FUS, EWSR1, TAF15) family of fusion oncogenes, including FUS-DDIT3 in myxoid liposarcoma (MLS).
Phase II study of amrubicin (SM-5887), a synthetic 9-aminoanthracycline, as first line treatment in patients with metastatic or unresectable soft tissue sarcoma: durable response in myxoid liposarcoma with TLS-CHOP translocation.

We present 2 cases of liposarcoma arising in the vulva: a myxoid liposarcoma harboring DDIT3 and FUS rearrangements and a well differentiated liposarcoma/atypical lipomatous tumor harboring MDM2 amplification detected by fluorescence in situ hybridization.
