- Neurofibromatosis 1
- Legius Syndrome
|
Neurofibromatosis type I (NF-1), formerly known as von Recklinghausen disease after the researcher (Friedrich Daniel von Recklinghausen) who first documented the disorder, is a human genetic disorder. It is possibly the most common inherited disorder caused by a single gene.
NF-1 is not to be confused with Proteus Syndrome, which is a separate disorder, although significant confusion remains in both the media and medical community regarding this fact.[1] NF-1 is a developmental syndrome caused by germline mutations in neurofibromin, a gene that is involved in the RAS pathway (RASopathy). In diagnosis it may also be confused with Legius syndrome.

Simple explanation
NF-1 is a tumor disorder that is caused by the mutation of a gene on chromosome 17 that is responsible for control of cell division. NF-1 causes tumors along the nervous system. NF-1 often comes with scoliosis (curvature of the spine), learning difficulties, eye problems, and epilepsy.
Etiology
Main article: Neurofibromin 1
The neurofibromin 1 gene
NF-1 is caused by a mutation of a gene on the long arm of chromosome 17 which encodes a protein known as neurofibromin (not to be confused with the disorder itself) which plays a role in cell signaling.[2][3] The Neurofibromin 1 gene is a negative regulator of the Ras oncogene signal transduction pathway. It stimulates the GTPase activity of Ras. It shows greater affinity for RAS p21 protein activator 1, but lower specific activity. The mRNA for this gene is subject to RNA editing (CGA->UGA->Arg1306Term) resulting in premature translation termination. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have also been described for this gene.
In 1989, through linkage and cross over analyses, neurofibromin was localized to chromosome 17.[4] It was localized to the long arm of chromosome 17 by chance when researchers discovered chromosome exchanges between chromosome 17 with chromosome 1 and 22.[4] This exchange of genetic material presumably caused a mutation in the neurofibromin gene, leading to the NF1 phenotype.
Structure of the Neurofibromin gene
The Neurofibromin gene was soon sequenced and found to be 350,000 base pairs in length.[5] However, the protein is 2818 amino acids long leading to the concept of splice variants.[6] For example, exon 9a, 23a and 48a are expressed in the neurons of the forebrain, muscle tissues and adult neurons respectively.[6]
Homology studies have shown that neurofibromin is 30% similar to proteins in the GTPase Activating Protein (GAP) Family.[5] This homologous sequence is in the central portion of neurofibromin and being similar to the GAP family is recognized as a negative regulator of the Ras kinase.[7]
Additionally, being such a large protein, more active domains of the protein have been identified. One such domain interacts with the protein adenylyl cyclase,[8] and a second with collapsin response mediator protein.[9] Together, likely with domains yet to be discovered, neurofibromin regulates many of the pathways responsible for overactive cell proliferation, learning impairments, skeletal defects and plays a role in neuronal development.[10]
Inheritance and spontaneous mutation
NF-1 is inherited in an autosomal dominant fashion, although it can also arise due to spontaneous mutation.
The mutant gene is transmitted with an autosomal dominant pattern of inheritance, but up to 50% of NF-1 cases arise due to spontaneous mutation. The incidence of NF-1 is about 1 in 3500 live births.[11]
Related medical conditions
Mutations in the NF1 gene have been linked to NF-1, Juvenile myelomonocytic leukemia and Watson syndrome. A condition with a separate gene mutation but similar Café au lait spots is Legius syndrome which has a mutation on the SPRED1 gene.
Diagnosis
Prenatal testing
Prenatal testing may be used to identify the existence of NF-1 in the fetus. For embryos produced via in vitro fertilisation, it is possible via preimplantation genetic diagnosis to screen for NF-1.[12]
Chorionic villus sampling or amniocentesis can be used to detect NF-1 in the fetus.[13]
Post-natal testing
The National Institute of Health (NIH) has created specific criteria for the diagnosis of NF-1. Two of these seven "Cardinal Clinical Features" are required for positive diagnosis.[14]
- Six or more café-au-lait spots over 5 mm in greatest diameter in pre-pubertal individuals and over 15 mm in greatest diameter in post-pubertal individuals. Note that multiple café-au-lait spots alone are not a definitive diagnosis of NF-1 as these spots can be caused by a number of other conditions.
- Two or more neurofibromas of any type or 1 plexiform neurofibroma
- Freckling in the axillary or inguinal regions
- Optic glioma
- Two or more Lisch nodules (pigmented iris hamartomas)
- A distinctive osseous lesion such as kyphoscoliosis,[15] sphenoid dysplasia, or thinning of the long bone cortex with or without pseudarthrosis.
- A first degree relative (parent, sibling, or offspring) with NF-1 by the above criteria.
- Discovered mutations of the NF1 gene, which is located at chromosome 17q11.2
Prognosis
NF-1 is a progressive and diverse condition, making the prognosis difficult to predict. The NF-1 gene mutations manifest the disorder differently even amongst people of the same family. This phenomena is called variable expressivity. For example, some individuals have no symptoms, while others may have a manifestation that is rapidly more progressive and severe.
For many NF-1 patients, a primary concern is the disfigurement caused by cutaneous/dermal neurofibromas, pigmented lesions, and the occasional limb abnormalities. However, there are many more severe complications caused by NF-1, although some of them are quite rare.
There is no cure for the disorder itself. Instead, people with neurofibromatosis are followed by a team of specialists to manage symptoms or complications. In progress and recently concluded medical studies on NF-1 can be found by searching the official website of the National Institute of Health.[16]
Treatment
The following is a list of conditions and complications associated with NF-1, and, where available, age range of onset and progressive development, occurrence percentage of NF-1 population, method of earliest diagnosis, and treatments and related medical specialties.[17][18] The progression of the condition is roughly as follows:
- Congenital musculoskeletal disorders may or may not be present
- Cutaneous conditions may be observed in early infancy
- Small tumors may arise in the retina which can eventually lead to blindness
- Learning disabilities may arise in preschool children
- Neurofibromas may occur and cause many dependent neurological conditions and cutaneous and skeletal disfigurement
- Depression and social anxiety may occur as a result of disabilities caused by the condition
- Neurofibromas may transition into cancer which can be fatal
The St. Louis Children's Hospital Neurofibromatosis Center maintains a comprehensive list of current NF research studies.
Musculoskeletal disorder
Musculoskeletal abnormalities affecting the skull include Sphenoid bone dysplasia, Congenital Hydrocephalus and associated neurologic impairment. These abnormalities are non-progressive and may be diagnosed in the fetus or at birth.
Disorders affecting the spine include:
- In NF-1, there can be a generalized abnormality of the soft tissues in the fetus, which is referred to as mesodermal dysplasia, resulting in maldevelopment of skeletal structures.
- Meningoceles and formation of cystic diverticula of the dura of the spine, unrelated to Spina bifida
- Radiographically, Dural ectasia can lead to scalloping of the posterior vertebral bodies and to the formation of cystic diverticula of the dura of the spine (termed meningoceles. This meningocele is not related to spina bifida).
- Focal scoliosis and/or kyphosis are the most common skeletal manifestation of NF-1, occurring in 20% of affected patients. Approximately 25% of patients will require corrective surgery.
Facial bones and limbs
See also: List of radiographic findings associated with cutaneous conditions
- Bowing of a long bone with a tendency to fracture and not heal, yielding a pseudarthrosis. The most common bone to be affected is the tibia, causing congenital pseudarthrosis of the tibia or CPT. CPT occurs in 2-4% of individuals with NF-1. Treatment includes limb amputation.
- Malformation of the facial bones or of the eye sockets (lambdoid suture defects, sphenoid dysplasia)
- Unilateral overgrowth of a limb. When a plexiform neurofibroma manifests on a leg or arm, it will cause extra blood circulation, and may thus accelerate the growth of the limb. This may cause considerable difference in length between left and right limbs. To equalize the difference during childhood, there is an orthopedic surgery called epiphysiodesis, where growth at the epiphyseal (growth) plate is halted. It can be performed on one side of the bone to help correct an angular deformity, or on both sides to stop growth of that bone completely. The surgery must also be carefully planned with regard to timing, as it is non-reversible. The goal is that the limbs are at near-equal length at end of growth.
Cutaneous conditions
See also: List of conditions associated with café au lait macules
- Flat pigmented lesions of the skin called café au lait spots.[19] These spots can grow from birth to 16 years and are nonprogressive after that.
- Freckling of the axillae or inguinal regions.
- Dermal neurofibroma, manifested as single or multiple firm, rubbery bumps of varying sizes on a person's skin. Age of onset is puberty. Progressive in number and size. Not malignant. Can be treated with CO2 lasers.
Eye disease
- Lisch nodules in the iris.
Neurobehavioral developmental disorder
The most common complication in patients with NF-1 is cognitive and learning disability. These cognitive problems have been shown to be present in approximately 80% of children with NF-1 and have significant effects on their schooling and everyday life.[20] These cognitive problems have been shown to be stable into adulthood and do not get worse unlike some of the other physical symptoms of NF-1.[21] The most common cognitive problems are with perception, executive functioning and attention. Disorders include:
- Attention deficit hyperactivity disorder has been shown to be present in approximately 38% of children with NF-1.
- Speech and language delays have also been identified in approximately 68% of preschool children with NF1.[22]
- Math deficits.
- Motor deficits are common. Motor deficits due to NF-1 are probably not cerebellar.[23]
- Spatial deficit. Lovastatin, normally used to treat hypercholesterolemia, is currently in phase one of clinical trial (NCT00352599). This drug has been shown to reverse spatial deficits in mice.[24]
- Asperger's Syndrome.
Nervous system disease
The primary neurologic involvement in NF-1 is of the peripheral nervous system, and secondarily of the central nervous system.
Peripheral neuropathy
Neurofibroma
A neurofibroma is a lesion of the peripheral nervous system. Its cellular lineage is uncertain, and may derive from Schwann cells, other perineural cell lines, or fibroblasts. Neurofibromas may arise sporadically, or in association with NF-1. A neurofibroma may arise at any point along a peripheral nerve. A number of drugs have been studied to treat this condition.
Neurofibroma conditions are progressive and include:
- Plexiform neurofibroma: Often congenital. Lesions are composed of sheets of neurofibromatous tissue that may infiltrate and encase major nerves, blood vessels, and other vital structures. These lesions are difficult and sometimes impossible to routinely resect without causing any significant damage to surrounding nerves and tissue.
- Solitary neurofibroma, affecting 8–12% of patients with NF-1. This occur in a deep nerve trunk. Diagnosis by cross-sectional imaging (e.g., computed tomography or magnetic resonance) as a fusiform enlargement of a nerve.
- Schwannomas, peripheral nerve-sheath tumors which are seen with increased frequency in NF-1. The major distinction between a schwannoma and a solitary neurofibroma is that a schwannoma can be resected while sparing the underlying nerve, whereas resection of a neurofibroma requires the sacrifice of the underlying nerve.
- Nerve root neurofibroma.
- Bones, especially the ribs, can develop chronic erosions (pits) from the constant pressure of adjacent neurofibroma or Schwannoma. Similarly, the neural foramen of the spine can be widened due to the presence of a nerve root neurofibroma or schwannoma. Surgery may be needed when NF-1 related tumors compress organs or other structures.
Nerve sheath tumor
- Peripheral nerve sheath tumor.
- Chronic pain, numbness, and/or paralysis due to peripheral nerve sheath tumor.
Other complications
- Renal artery anomalies or pheochromocytoma and associated chronic hypertension
- Schwannoma
Central nervous system disease
Epilepsy
- Occurrence. Epileptic seizures haven been reported in up to 7% of NF-1 patients.[25]
- Diagnosis. Electroencephalograph, magnetic resonance imaging, computed tomographic scan, single-photon emission CT and positron emission tomographic scan.
- Etiology. Due to cerebral tumors, cortical malformation, mesial temporal sclerosis.
- Therapy. Drug therapy (57% amenable) where not resistant (29%).
Glial tumors
Intracranially, NF-1 patients have a predisposition to develop glial tumors of the central nervous system, primarily:
- Optic nerve gliomas and associated blindness.
- Astrocytoma
Focally degenerative myelin
Another CNS manifestation of NF-1 is the so-called "unidentified bright object" or UBO, which is a lesion which has increased signal on a T2 weighted sequence of a magnetic resonance imaging examination of the brain. These UBOs are typically found in the Cerebral peduncle, pons, midbrain, globus pallidus, thalamus, and optic radiations. Their exact identity remains a bit of a mystery since they disappear over time (usually, by age 16), and they are not typically biopsied or resected. They may represent a focally degenerative bit of myelin.
Dural ectasia
Within the CNS, NF-1 manifests as a weakness of the dura, which is the tough covering of the brain and spine. Weakness of the dura leads to focal enlargement terms dural ectasia due to chronic exposure to the pressures of CSF pulsation.
Acetazolamide has shown promise as a treatment for this condition.
Mental disorder
Children with NF-1 can experience social problems, attention problems, social anxiety, depression, withdrawal, thought problems, somatic complaints, and aggressive behavior.[26] Treatments include psychotherapy, antidepressants and cognitive behavioral therapy.
Cancer

Cancer can arise in the form of Malignant peripheral nerve sheath tumor resulting from malignant degeneration of a plexiform neurofibroma.
- Frequency. A plexiform neurofibroma has a lifetime risk of 8–12% of transformation into a malignant tumor.
- Diagnosis. MRI.
- Treatment. Chemotherapy.
- Mortality. Malignant nerve sheath tumor was the main cause of death (60%) in a study of 1895 patients with NF-1 from France in the time period 1980-2006 indicated excess mortality in NF-1 patients compared to the general populaion.[27] The cause of death was available for 58 (86.6%) patients. The study found excess mortality occurred among patients aged 10 to 40 years. Significant excess mortality was found in both males and females.
