Abstract excerpt
Brain arteriovenous malformations (bAVMs) are anomalies forming vascular tangles connecting the arteries and veins, which cause hemorrhagic stroke in young adults. Current surgical approaches are highly invasive, and alternative therapeutic methods are warranted. Recent genetic studies identified KRAS mutations in endothelial cells of bAVMs; however, the underlying process leading to malformation in the postnatal...
