Familial Cerebral Cavernous Malformations: Pathophysiology, Genetics, Biomarkers, and Treatment Perspectives. [PDF]
J NeurochemCerebral cavernous malformations (CCMs) are vascular lesions in the brain caused by inherited genetic mutations in the CCM1/2/3 genes that disrupt normal blood vessel function. This work demonstrates that these mutations lead to endothelial dysfunction, inflammation, and iron accumulation, which can be detected by magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and ...
