Description

The PAX8/PPARG (paired box 8/peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma) gene rearrangement is created by a translocation between chromosome arms 2q and 3p where the entire coding region of the PPARG transcription factor gene is fused with the first 8 to 10 exons of the PAX8 gene. PMID: 10958784 Translocations of the PAX8/PPARG genes play a role in the pathogenesis of some follicular thyroid carcinomas and follicular-variant papillary thyroid carcinoma. PMID: 20056739 Several testing methods are used to detect the rearrangement, including fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH), immunohistochemistry (IHC), and reverse-transcription PCR (RT-PCR).
