Tumor mutational burden as a determinant of metastatic dissemination patterns
This study performed a comprehensive analysis of genomic data to elucidate whether metastasis in certain organs share genetic characteristics regardless of cancer type. No robust mutational patterns were identified across different metastatic locations and cancer types.

Multiple roles for neurofibromin in skeletal development and growth [PDF]
Neurofibromatosis type 1 (NF1) is a prevalent genetic disorder primarily characterized by the formation of neurofibromas, café-au-lait spots and freckling. Skeletal abnormalities such as short stature or bowing/pseudarthrosis of the tibia are relatively common.

Behavioral and Sleep Disorders in Neurofibromatosis
The behavior and sleep patterns of 64 children (mean age 10 years 7 months) with neurofibromatosis type 1 (NF1) were determined by mail and telephone questionnaire in a study at Park Hospital, University of Oxford, UK.

Neurofibromatosis in Children: Actually and Perspectives
The three types of neurofibromatosis, namely type 1, type 2, and schwannomatosis, are generally associated with various benign tumors affecting the skin and the nervous system. On rare occasions, especially in patients with neurofibromatosis type 1 (NF1),

A conserved alternative splice in the von Recklinghausen neurofibromatosis (NF1) gene produces two neurofibromin isoforms, both of which have GTPase-activating protein activity [PDF]
Sequence analysis has shown significant homology between the catalytic regions of the mammalian ras GTPase-activating protein (GAP), yeast Ira1p and Ira2p (inhibitory regulators of the RAS-cyclic AMP pathway), and neurofibromin, the protein encoded by ...

ABSTRACT Lentigines, café‐au‐lait macules (CALMs), and vitiligo are pigmentary disorders that seldom occur together in a single individual. Their co‐occurrence may indicate underlying genetic syndromes requiring differential diagnosis. We report an 18‐year‐old male who developed CALMs at age 11, agminated lentigines at age 13, and vitiligo on the right

Neurofibromin (Nf1) is required for skeletal muscle development [PDF]
Neurofibromatosis type 1 (NF1) is a multi-system disease caused by mutations in the NF1 gene encoding a Ras-GAP protein, neurofibromin, which negatively regulates Ras signaling. Besides neuroectodermal malformations and tumors, the skeletal system is often affected (e.g.

an international symposium held in Pavia on July 4th, 2014 [PDF]
New progresses into the molecular and cellular mechanisms of autism spectrum disorders (ASDs) have been discussed in 1 day international symposium held in Pavia (Italy) on July 4th, 2014 entitled “synapses as therapeutic targets for autism spectrum ...

MR‐guided laser interstitial thermal therapy (LITT) offers a minimally invasive option for recurrent glioblastoma, but human post‐treatment tissue data are scarce. In this case report, post‐LITT tissue exhibited distinct zonal changes, including central necrosis within the ablation zone and reduced tumour proliferation with increased CD8+ T‐cell ...

Gene expression analysis of aberrant signaling pathways in meningiomas [PDF]
Examining aberrant pathway alterations is one method for understanding the abnormal signals that are involved in tumorigenesis and tumor progression. In the present study, expression arrays were performed on tumor-related genes in meningiomas.
