Loss of Neurofibromin Induces Inflammatory Macrophage Phenotypic Switch and Retinal Neovascularization via GLUT1 Activation

2024-09-14

Abstract excerpt

Persons with neurofibromatosis type 1 (NF1), a tumor predisposition syndrome, are largely protected from diabetes and exhibit evidence of enhanced glucose metabolism, which is replicated in mice harboring Nf1 mutations. A hallmark of NF1-associated neurofibromas and sarcomas is the high density of inflammatory macrophages and targeting macrophages appears efficacious in models of NF1. Inflammatory macrophages rel...
