Somatic mutations in intracranial arteriovenous malformations
[Paper-level Aggregated] PMCID: PMC6938308
Evidence Type(s): Oncogenic, Diagnostic, Prognostic
Justification: Oncogenic: The text indicates that KRAS mutations (p.G12D and p.G12V) and BRAF mutations (p.V600E and p.Q636X) are linked to brain AVMs, suggesting these variants contribute to disease development. Diagnostic: The detection of somatic mutations in AVM specimens indicates that these mutations can be used to identify the presence of the disease in patients. Prognostic: The observation that two patients with BRAF mutations presented at an older age than other participants suggests that these mutations may be associated with age-related disease characteristics.
