More than 90% of NF1 patients develop dermal neurofibromas (DN), and 25-50% develop plexiform neurofibromas (PN). In 8-13% of individuals with NF1, PN can transform into malignant peripheral nerve sheath tumors (MPNSTs), a type of nerve soft tissue sarcoma that is the main cause of mortality of NF1 patients. In addition to arising from benign neurofibromas (50%), MPNSTs can also occur spontaneously (~40%) or following radiation therapy (~10%). Treatment for MPNST is limited to complete resection with negative margins. Still, the high recurrence of MPNST is a major concern. However, full resection of the pre-malignant lesions can largely reduce the recurrence and mortality of patients. So, early diagnosis and distinguishing malignancy from benign and premalignant lesions are particularly important. During the progression from benign neurofibromas to malignancy, a variety of changes including tumor morphology, genetic mutations, expression of multiple signaling pathways-related proteins and genome instability gradually occur. In this review, we detail these changes with the goals of identifying the histological and/or molecular signs of malignancy initiation, and an optimal therapeutic intervention window, to inhibit tumor progression and reduce the rate of mortality.</p>","PeriodicalId":9690,"journal":{"name":"Cellular Oncology","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":6.6,"publicationDate":"2025-04-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143763039","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
