Increasing precision in the management of pediatric neurosurgical cerebrovascular diseases with molecular genetics.
Journal of neurosurgery. Pediatrics(2023)
摘要
Recent next-generation DNA and RNA sequencing studies of congenital and pediatric cerebrovascular anomalies such as moyamoya disease, arteriovenous malformations, vein of Galen malformations, and cavernous malformations have shed new insight into the genetic regulation of human cerebrovascular development by implicating multiple novel disease genes and signaling pathways in the pathogenesis of these disorders. These diseases are now beginning to be categorized by molecular disruptions in canonical signaling pathways that impact the differentiation and proliferation of specific venous, capillary, or arterial cells during the hierarchical development of the cerebrovascular system. Here, the authors discuss how the continued study of these and other congenital cerebrovascular conditions has the potential to replace the current antiquated, anatomically based disease classification systems with a molecular taxonomy that has the potential to increase precision in genetic counseling, prognostication, and neurosurgical and endovascular treatment stratification. Importantly, the authors also discuss how molecular genetic data are already informing clinical trials and catalyzing the development of targeted therapies for these conditions historically considered as exclusively neurosurgical lesions.
