Cerebrospinal Fluid Proteomic Analysis Reveals Dysregulation of Methionine Aminopeptidase-2 Expression in Human and Mouse Neurofibromatosis 1–Associated Glioma
1 Nov 2005
Abstract excerpt
Individuals affected with the neurofibromatosis 1 (NF1) tumor predisposition syndrome are prone to the development of multiple nervous system tumors, including optic pathway gliomas (OPG). The NF1 tumor suppressor gene product, neurofibromin, functions as a Ras GTPase-activating protein, and has been proposed to regulate cell growth by inhibiting Ras activity. Recent studies from our laboratory have shown that...
