Abstract excerpt
Brain arteriovenous malformations (bAVMs) are high-flow vascular lesions characterized by direct arteriovenous shunting without an intervening capillary bed. The identification of somatic KRAS and BRAF mutations in sporadic bAVM endothelial cells (ECs) has fundamentally reshaped current understanding of bAVM biology, indicating that activation of the RAS/MAPK pathway drives aberrant angiogenic programs. In...
