==Definition / Description of Disease==


Invasive carcinoma with a characteristic histologic pattern, comprised of epithelial and myoepithelial cells. Epithelial cells form glands with lumina containing mucoid material; associated stromal matrix is present, forming irregular spaces called pseudolumina. Subtypes include classic adenoid cystic carcinoma, solid-basaloid adenoid cystic carcinoma, and adenoid cystic carcinoma with high-grade transformation.

The classic subtype contains epithelial and myoepithelial cells with spaces called pseudolamina that contain stromal matrix with stromal cells (endothelial cells, fibroblasts) and basement membrane material (stains positive for collagen IV and laminin). Two cell populations are observed: an epithelial component that stains with low molecular weight cytokeratins (CK7, CK8), EMA, and sometimes CK5/6, and a myoepithelial component that stains with high molecular weight cytokeratins (CK14, CK5/6, p63) and typically also with myoepithelial markers (heavy-chain myosin, calponin, S100, CD10).
==Immunophenotype==
 
The solid basaloid subtype contains solid nests of basaloid cells with high grade nuclear features (marked nuclear atypia, high mitotic count, and necrosis).
 
Rare cases of adenoid cystic carcinoma can undergo high-grade transformation.

==Chromosomal Rearrangements (Gene Fusions)==
Recurrent rearrangements of ''MYB'' (or, more rarely, the paralogous gene ''MYBL1'') preserve the N-terminal DNA binding domain and transactivation domain in the chimeric gene product. The C-terminal regulatory domains of ''MYB'' or ''MYBL1'' is generally absent in the active fusion, but the intact gene sequence is preserved in reported cases of ''MYB'' amplification and in some ''MYBL1'' rearrangements.<ref name=":1">{{Cite journal|last=Persson|first=Marta|last2=Andrén|first2=Ywonne|last3=Mark|first3=Joachim|last4=Horlings|first4=Hugo M.|last5=Persson|first5=Fredrik|last6=Stenman|first6=Göran|date=2009-11-03|title=Recurrent fusion of MYB and NFIB transcription factor genes in carcinomas of the breast and head and neck|url=https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/19841262|journal=Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America|volume=106|issue=44|pages=18740–18744|doi=10.1073/pnas.0909114106|issn=1091-6490|pmc=2773970|pmid=19841262}}</ref><ref name=":2">{{Cite journal|last=Kim|first=Jisun|last2=Geyer|first2=Felipe C.|last3=Martelotto|first3=Luciano G.|last4=Ng|first4=Charlotte Ky|last5=Lim|first5=Raymond S.|last6=Selenica|first6=Pier|last7=Li|first7=Anqi|last8=Pareja|first8=Fresia|last9=Fusco|first9=Nicola|date=2018-02|title=MYBL1 rearrangements and MYB amplification in breast adenoid cystic carcinomas lacking the MYB-NFIB fusion gene|url=https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/29149504|journal=The Journal of Pathology|volume=244|issue=2|pages=143–150|doi=10.1002/path.5006|issn=1096-9896|pmc=5839480|pmid=29149504}}</ref> Single cases of other fusions have been reported, including a  ''KMT2C''::''WEE2'' fusion reported by Schwartz and others<ref name=":8">{{Cite journal|last=Schwartz|first=Christopher J.|last2=Brogi|first2=Edi|last3=Marra|first3=Antonio|last4=Da Cruz Paula|first4=Arnaud F.|last5=Nanjangud|first5=Gouri J.|last6=da Silva|first6=Edaise M.|last7=Patil|first7=Sujata|last8=Shah|first8=Shreena|last9=Ventura|first9=Katia|date=2022-02|title=The clinical behavior and genomic features of the so-called adenoid cystic carcinomas of the solid variant with basaloid features|url=https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/34599282|journal=Modern Pathology: An Official Journal of the United States and Canadian Academy of Pathology, Inc|volume=35|issue=2|pages=193–201|doi=10.1038/s41379-021-00931-6|issn=1530-0285|pmc=9197148|pmid=34599282}}</ref>,

A study of adenoid cystic carcinoma of salivary glands by Drier and others delineates the mechanism of ''MYB'' gene pathway upregulation via rearrangements that increase MYB expression. ''MYB'' rearrangements typically juxtapose ''MYB'' with strong enhancers in regions downstream of ''NFIB, TGFBR3'' and ''RAD51B.'' Gene fusions most often occur on the 3' side of ''MYB'', a subset of gene fusions occur on the 5' side, and all serve to bring the ''MYB'' gene locus close to strong enhancer elements, thus upregulating MYB expression. The authors note that TP63 signaling is active in the myoepithelial component of low grade adenoid cystic carcinomas, while Notch signaling is active in luminal epithelial components. Furthermore, the authors suggest that Notch pathway mutations may underlie the switch to solid histology and the more aggressive clinical course of these tumors.<ref>{{Cite journal|last=Drier|first=Yotam|last2=Cotton|first2=Matthew J.|last3=Williamson|first3=Kaylyn E.|last4=Gillespie|first4=Shawn M.|last5=Ryan|first5=Russell J.

The separation in this case is small, suggesting an inversion (i.e., intrachromosomal rearrangement).]]
