    Expression of a binding protein for FGF is associated with epithelial development and skin carcinogenesis

    Fibroblast growth factors (FGF)-1 and -2 are found in most embryonic and adult normal and tumor tissues, where they are immobilized in the extracellular matrix (EM). Mobilization of these FGFs is part of a tig...

    The angiogenic factor midkine is aberrantly expressed in NF1-deficient Schwann cells and is a mitogen for neurofibroma-derived cells

    Loss of the tumor suppressor gene NF1 in neurofibromatosis type 1 (NF1) contributes to the development of a variety of tumors, including malignant peripheral nerve sheath tumors (MPNST) and benign neurofibromas. ...

    Differential modulation of malignant peripheral nerve sheath tumor growth by omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids

    Neurofibromatosis type 1 (NF1) is a common genetic disorder of the nervous system resulting in neurofibromas and malignant peripheral nerve sheath tumors (MPNST). In this study, we report the modulation of mur...
