Neurofibromatosis type 1 (NF1), a common autosomal dominant neurogenetic disorder affecting 1 in 4000 individuals worldwide, results from functional inactivation of the 17q11.2-located NF1 gene. Plexiform neurofibroma (PNF) is a congenital benign tumour present in 30-50% of NF1 patients, which in ab

## Abstract The __NF2__ gene is a putative tumor‐suppressor gene that, when it is altered in the germline, causes neurofibromatosis type 2, a tumor‐susceptibility disease that mainly predisposes to schwannomas and meningiomas. The recent isolation of the __NF2__ gene on chromosome 22 allows the ide

## Abstract It is estimated that up to 35% of colorectal cancers (CRC) can be explained by hereditary factors. However, genes predisposing to highly penetrant CRC syndromes account for only a small fraction of all cases. Thus, most CRCs still remain molecularly unexplained. A recent systematic sequ
