The molecular landscape of glioma in patients with Neurofibromatosis 1
Neurofibromatosis type 1 (NF1) is a common tumor predisposition syndrome in which glioma is one of the prevalent tumors. Gliomagenesis in NF1 results in a heterogeneous spectrum of low- to high-grade neoplasms occurring during the entire lifespan of ...

NF2/merlin in hereditary neurofibromatosis 2 versus cancer: biologic mechanisms and clinical associations. [PDF]
Inactivating germline mutations in the tumor suppressor gene NF2 cause the hereditary syndrome neurofibromatosis 2, which is characterized by the development of neoplasms of the nervous system, most notably bilateral vestibular schwannoma.

The cell of origin dictates the temporal course of neurofibromatosis-1 (Nf1) low-grade glioma formation. [PDF]
Low-grade gliomas are one of the most common brain tumors in children, where they frequently form within the optic pathway (optic pathway gliomas; OPGs).
