microGIST (<1cm) Found in 30% of the general population
EG junction, spindle cell type
Dr. Cher-Wei Liang
Why Study MicroGIST???
►One of the most common benign tumors
►Only common benign tumor that results from TK genomic mutation
►Define events responsible for progression
►from TK-mutant ICC hyperplasia to microGIST
►from microGIST to clinical GIST
►Characterize barriers to malignant progression

FISH evaluation of chr 14 deletion in viable vs. hyalinized regions of microGISTs (N = 11)
Chr 14 deletion evaluated in 200 cells from 11 microGISTs 5 of 11 microGISTs (45%) had chr 14 deletion– present equally in cellular and hyalinized components

KIT-ligand (SCF): strong expression in smooth muscle; weak-to-no expression in microGIST
Green: Desmin Red: SCF Blue: DAPI
MicroGISTs have infiltrative borders (90.7%) and smooth muscle markers (49%)
GREEN = Desmin RED = DOG1 BLUE = DAPI
RED = Desmin Brown = DOG1

Some microGISTs are smooth muscle-dependent tumors

Conclusions #1
►MicroGISTs are on a biologic continuum with malignant GISTs
►But, they virtually never progress to malignancy
►And, they very often involute
►Certain KIT & PDGFRA mutations cannot sustain malignant progression
Conclusions #2
►Progression from microGIST to clinical problem Ligand-independence or autocrine/paracrine
Further cell cycle dysregulation
