Optic pathway gliomas and brainstem gliomas are the predominant intracranial neoplasms associated with neurofibromatosis type 1 (NF1). Before the past 15 years, studies of optic pathway gliomas in NF1 were hampered by the inaccurate diagnosis of NF1, the unavailability of noninvasive neuroimaging te

Neurofibromatosis type 1 (NF1) is a dominant disorder caused by mutations in the NF1 gene; approximately 100 NF1 gene mutations have been published. The CpG C-to-T transition is a frequent mutation mechanism in genetic disorders. To estimate its frequency in NF1, we employed a PCR-restriction digest
## Abstract Individuals with nerofibromatosis Type 1 (NF1) frequently suffer a spectrum of bone pathologies, such as abnormal skeletal development (scoliosis, congenital bowing, and congenital pseudoarthroses, etc), lower bone mineral density with increased fracture risk. These skeletal problems ma
Neurofibromatosis type 1 (NF1) is characterized by clinical features that primarily affect tissues derived from the neural crest (neurofibromas, caf~-aulait macules). Because aberrant regulation of alternative splicing in the NF1 gene transcript may be of functional significance, cultured melanocyte
