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.

Decreased PP2A expression and activity represent a therapeutic target for plexiform neurofibroma

Acta Neuropathologica Communications
In neurofibromatosis type 1 (NF1), loss-of-function mutations in the NF1 gene increase activation of the RAS–MEK–ERK signaling cascade, driving tumorigenesis. MEK inhibitors (MEKi) inhibit tumor growth and significantly shrink nerve tumors (neurofibromas)

Histopathological Evidence of Neurodegenerative Pathology in Epilepsy: A Systematic Review

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, Volume 13, Issue 8, Page 1530-1542, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Epilepsy affects > 50 million people worldwide and is associated with a disproportionate burden of cognitive impairment. Emerging evidence suggests that neurodegenerative proteinopathies, particularly hyperphosphorylated tau (p‐tau) and amyloid‐β (Aβ), may contribute to cognitive dysfunction in people with epilepsy (PWE), even in the absence ...

Renal artery rupture with lethal outcome in a patient with neurofibromatosis type 1: Case report and review of literature

Journal of International Medical Research
Neurofibromatosis type 1 is an autosomal dominant disorder. The vasculopathy of neurofibromatosis type 1 may rarely comprise stenosis, occlusion, aneurysm, pseudoaneurysm, and arteriovenous deformity, and it often presents as rupture of an undiagnosed ...

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.

Interferon‐induced transmembrane (IFITM) proteins at the tumour–immune interface: A four‐axis framework for their context‐dependent roles

Clinical and Translational Medicine, Volume 16, Issue 8, August 2026.
Interferon‐induced transmembrane (IFITM) function in cancer is set by four contextual coordinates, not by family membership. Acute interferon input drives major histocompatibility complex class I (MHC‐I)‐linked immunogenicity; chronic input drives programmed death‐ligand 1 (PD‐L1)‐coupled resistance.
