This genetic disorder involves the formation of tumors on nerve tissue, unravelling a complex web of challenges for affected individuals.
The Genetic Basis of Neurofibromatosis Neurofibromatosis is primarily a result of genetic mutations that impact the NF1, NF2, or SMARCB1 genes. These mutations lead to the uncontrolled growth of cells, forming tumors on nerves throughout the body.
NF1 Mutation: The NF1 gene provides instructions for producing a protein that plays a crucial role in regulating cell growth. Mutations in NF1 result in dysfunctional regulation, allowing cells to proliferate uncontrollably, forming tumors on nerves.
NF2 Mutation: The NF2 gene is responsible for producing a protein that suppresses the growth of tumors. Mutations in NF2 lead to a loss of this tumor-suppressing function, contributing to the development of tumors in the nervous system.
SMarCB1 Mutation: In Schwannomatosis, a less common form of NF, mutations in the SMARCB1 gene are implicated. This gene is involved in the regulation of cell growth, and its mutation can lead to the formation of tumors on nerves.
