Cerebral Vasculopathy in Neurofibromatosis Type 1: An Under-Recognized Problem?
Neurofibromatosis type 1 (NF1) is a common genetic disorder caused by mutations in the NF1 gene, which encodes neurofibromin, a GTPase-activating protein (GAP)-related domain that negatively regulates the Ras/mitogen-activated protein kinase (RAS/MAPK) signaling pathway.
