Abstract:Background: Scoliosis is a common manifestation of neurofibromatosis type 1, causing significant morbidity. The etiology of dystrophic scoliosis in neurofibromatosis type 1(NF1) is not fully understood and its therapies are lacking. This article focused on how GPR56 affected the development of NF1 cells and the related factors of osteoblast and osteoclast. Methods: Through RNA-sequencing, G-protein-coupled receptor (GPR56) was found highly differential expressed in the NF1 with scoliosis samples. We measured t… Show more
