PMID: 32296180 (2020) - Recurrent germline LOF variants of ELP1 detected in paediatric medulloblastoma (MB) cases; specifically the Sonic Hedgehog (SHH) subgroup, in which the variants were found in 14.4% (29/202) of patients. Inheritance of germline ELP1 LOF variants was confirmed by WES of three parent-offspring trios, two of which exhibited a family history of paediatric MB. Carriers of these variants tended to develop MB(SHH) as older children (median age at diagnosis: 6.3 years). ELP1-associated MB(SHH) tumours were significantly enriched for somatic alterations of PTCH1 (Sonic Hedgehog receptor), suggesting ELP1 LOF variants predispose to tumour development in combination with constitutive activation of SHH signalling.
