Comparing 3D imaging devices for the measurement of cutaneous neurofibromas in patients with Neurofibromatosis Type 1. [PDF]

open access: yesSkin Res Technol
Abstract Background Cutaneous neurofibromas (cNFs) are a major cause of disfigurement in patients with Neurofibromatosis Type 1 (NF1). However, clinical trials investigating cNF treatments lack standardised outcome measures to objectively evaluate changes in cNF size and appearance.

Heterozygous NF1 dermal fibroblasts modulate exosomal content to promote angiogenesis in a tissue‐engineered skin model of neurofibromatosis type‐1

open access: yesJournal of Neurochemistry, Volume 167, Issue 4, Page 556-570, November 2023., 2023
In this study, we investigated the influence of dermal fibroblast in modifying the surrounding microenvironment. Neovascularization plays a crucial role in neurofibromas formation, growth, and malignant transformation. Using NF1‐derived tissue‐engineered skins, we showed that NF1 heterozygosity in human dermal fibroblasts promoted angiogenesis through ...

Pharmacology of inhibitors of Janus kinases – Part 2: Pharmacodynamics

open access: yesJDDG: Journal der Deutschen Dermatologischen Gesellschaft, Volume 20, Issue 12, Page 1621-1631, December 2022., 2022
Summary As small molecules, the Janus kinase inhibitors have different, dose‐dependent pharmacological binding selectivities, which, however, do not allow reliable statements about the clinical specificity of desired or side effects. It is therefore of particular importance to recognize that the pharmacodynamics of the individual Janus kinase ...

A mild neurofibromatosis type 1 phenotype produced by the combination of the benign nature of a leaky NF1-splice mutation and the presence of a complex mosaicism [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Here we analyze the genetic and molecular basis responsible for a very benign phenotype observed in an NF1 patient. Quantification of cells carrying the NF1 mutation in different samples derived from the three embryonic layers revealed mosaicism ...
