Epigenetic Mechanisms in Neurofibromatosis Types 1 and 2

Epigenomes
Neurocutaneous syndromes, known as phakomatoses, encompass a diverse group of congenital conditions affecting the nervous system and skin, with neurofibromatosis type 1 (NF1) and neurofibromatosis type 2 (NF2) among the most clinically significant.

Increased Risk of Sarcomas in Children With Congenital Anomalies: Findings From the Genetic Overlap Between Anomalies and Cancer in Kids (GOBACK) Registry Linkage Study

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, Volume 73, Issue 8, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Background Pediatric sarcomas are a heterogeneous group of tumors that contribute disproportionately to cancer mortality in children. Although congenital anomalies are among the strongest known risk factors for childhood cancer, the risk of specific sarcoma subtypes among affected individuals has not yet been thoroughly evaluated.

The 9th International RASopathies Symposium

American Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, Volume 200, Issue 8, Page 1934-1941, August 2026.
ABSTRACT The RASopathies are a group of congenital disorders with overlapping clinical manifestations that are caused by pathogenic germline or early somatic variants that result in the hyperactivation of the RAS/mitogen‐activated protein kinase (MAPK) signaling pathway.

Complex Genetic Architecture in RASopathies: Constitutional PTPN11 and Mosaic RIT1 Pathogenic Variants Underlying Severe Noonan Syndrome With Adult‐Onset Acute Myeloid Leukemia

American Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, Volume 200, Issue 8, Page 1879-1883, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Noonan syndrome (NS) is a genetically heterogeneous disorder characterized by a broad spectrum of clinical features resulting from dysregulation of the RAS/MAPK pathway. Although complex genotypes are increasingly recognized in NS, cases harboring two distinct pathogenic variants in different NS genes remain extremely rare.

Fast sleep spindles as a potential prognostic marker of developmental outcome in infantile epileptic spasms syndrome

Epilepsia Open, Volume 11, Issue 4, Page 1227-1236, August 2026.
Abstract Objective The presence or absence of sleep spindles in patients with infantile epileptic spasms syndrome (IESS) has been proposed as a potential predictor of cognitive outcome; however, the validity of this predictor remains uncertain.
