High-content microscopy and machine learning characterize a cell morphology signature of <i>NF1</i> genotype in Schwann cells
2024-09-16
Abstract excerpt
Neurofibromatosis type 1 (NF1) is a multi-system, autosomal dominant genetic disorder driven by the systemic loss of the NF1 protein neurofibromin. Loss of neurofibromin in Schwann cells is particularly detrimental, as the acquisition of a ‘second-hit’ (e.g., complete loss of NF1 ) can lead to the development of plexiform neurofibromas (pNF). pNFs are painful, disfiguring tumors with an approximately 1 in 5 chanc...
