Breast cancer risk (un)awareness among women suffering from neurofibromatosis type 1 in Poland

open access: yes, 2020
The main goal of this study was to draw the attention of physicians to commonly undisclosed risk of breast cancer (BrCa) in women suffering from neurofibromatosis type 1 (NF-1), which is 5-fold higher than in the general population.

Influence of cellular models and individual factor in the biological response to chest CT scan exams

open access: yesEuropean Radiology Experimental, 2022
Background While computed tomography (CT) exams are the major cause of medical exposure to ionising radiation, there is increasing evidence that the potential radiation-induced risks must be documented.

New insights into the molecular basis of spinal neurofibromatosis type 1 [PDF]

open access: yes, 2023
Spinal neurofibromatosis (SNF) is a form of neurofibromatosis type 1 (NF1) characterized by bilateral neurofibromas involving all spinal roots. The pathogenic mechanisms determining the SNF form are currently unknown.

Tightly linked markers for the neurofibromatosis type 1 gene

open access: yesGenomics, 1987
Relationships among genetic markers in the region of the neurofibromatosis type 1 (NF1) gene on chromosome 17 were investigated by linkage studies in a large sample set of affected families and in a panel of 58 normal families. A new marker, pHHH202 (D17S33), was included along with two markers known to be closely linked to NF.

Assessment of Rare Genetic Variants to Identify Candidate Modifier Genes Underlying Neurological Manifestations in Neurofibromatosis 1 Patients

open access: yes, 2022
Neurological phenotypes such as intellectual disability occur in almost half of patients with neurofibromatosis 1 (NF1). Current genotype–phenotype studies have failed to reveal the mechanism underlying this clinical variability.

The RASopathies: from pathogenetics to therapeutics

open access: yesDisease Models & Mechanisms, 2022
The RASopathies are a group of disorders caused by a germline mutation in one of the genes encoding a component of the RAS/MAPK pathway. These disorders, including neurofibromatosis type 1, Noonan syndrome, cardiofaciocutaneous syndrome, Costello ...

A Clinical Variant of Neurofibromatosis Type 1: Familial Spinal Neurofibromatosis with a Frameshift Mutation in the NF1 Gene [PDF]

open access: yesThe American Journal of Human Genetics, 1998
Spinal neurofibromatosis (SNF) has been considered to be an alternative form of neurofibromatosis in which spinal cord tumors are the main clinical characteristic. Familial SNF has been reported, elsewhere, in three families-two linked to markers within the gene for neurofibromatosis type 1 (NF1) and the other not linked to NF1-but no molecular ...

Cardiac imaging in RASopathies/mitogen activated protein kinase syndromes

open access: yesCardiogenetics, 2014
RASopathies include a spectrum of disorders due to dysregulation of RAS/mitogen activated protein kinase pathway that plays an essential role in the control of the cell cycle and differentiation.

Genetic interactions between neurofibromin and endothelin receptor B in mice. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2013
When mutations in two different genes produce the same mutant phenotype, it suggests that the encoded proteins either interact with each other, or act in parallel to fulfill a similar purpose.
