Epidemiology of neurofibromatosis type 1 (NF1) in northern Finland [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Medical Genetics, 2000
Editor—Neurofibromatosis type 1 (NF1), also known as von Recklinghausen's disease, is an autosomal dominant neurocutaneous disease characterised by cafe au lait spots and neurofibromas. The gene responsible for the disorder is located in the chromosome region 17q11.2. The prevalence of NF1 has been estimated to be about 1/3500 in the USA and the United

Reprogramming Captures the Genetic and Tumorigenic Properties of Neurofibromatosis Type 1 Plexiform Neurofibromas

open access: yesStem Cell Reports, 2019
Summary: Neurofibromatosis type 1 (NF1) is a tumor predisposition genetic disease caused by mutations in the NF1 tumor suppressor gene. Plexiform neurofibromas (PNFs) are benign Schwann cell (SC) tumors of the peripheral nerve sheath that develop through
