Neurofibromin Deficient Myeloid Cells are Critical Mediators of Aneurysm Formation In Vivo [PDF]
Background Neurofibromatosis Type 1 (NF1) is a genetic disorder resulting from mutations in the NF1 tumor suppressor gene. Neurofibromin, the protein product of NF1, functions as a negative regulator of Ras activity in circulating hematopoietic and ...

Genetic Pigmentary Disorders: From Molecular Mechanisms to Clinical Manifestations
ABSTRACT Genetic pigmentary disorders represent a diverse group of genetic conditions characterized by alterations in melanin production and transport and melanocyte development, resulting from single‐gene pathological variants. These disorders encompass both hypopigmentary and hyperpigmentary phenotypes, affecting not only skin pigmentation but also ...

De novo pyrimidine synthesis is a collateral metabolic vulnerability in NF2-deficient mesothelioma
Pleural mesothelioma (PM) is one of the deadliest cancers, with limited therapeutic options due to its therapeutically intractable genome, which is characterized by the functional inactivation of tumor suppressor genes (TSGs) and high tumor heterogeneity,

Deconvoluting mTOR biology [PDF]
In metazoans, TOR is an essential protein that functions as a master regulator of cellular growth and proliferation. Over the past decade, there has been an explosion of information about this critical master kinase, ranging from the composition of the ...

Liquid–Liquid Phase Separation in Major Hallmarks of Cancer
Aberrant condensates formed through phase separation are involved in the dysregulation of various critical cellular processes, including genome stability, transcriptional regulation and signal transduction, thereby promoting malignant transformation and the acquisition of multiple cancer hallmarks.

Hyperactive Ras/MAPK signaling is critical for tibial nonunion fracture in neurofibromin-deficient mice [PDF]
Neurofibromatosis type 1 (NF1) is a common genetic disorder affecting 1 in 3500 individuals. Patients with NF1 are predisposed to debilitating skeletal manifestations, including osteopenia/osteoporosis and long bone pseudarthrosis (nonunion fracture ...
