• 79.2% of mice exhibit neurofibroma tumors; tumors arise at the dorsal root ganglia, with invasion of the neural foramen and lead to compression of the spinal cord
• most tumors are detected in cervical and thoracic spine, with a lower percentage in the lumbar spine
• neurofibromas are characterized by disorganized Remak bundles and enriched deposition of collagen

nervous system
• 79.2% of mice exhibit neurofibroma tumors; tumors arise at the dorsal root ganglia, with invasion of the neural foramen and lead to compression of the spinal cord
• most tumors are detected in cervical and thoracic spine, with a lower percentage in the lumbar spine
• neurofibromas are characterized by disorganized Remak bundles and enriched deposition of collagen
• enlarged peripheral nerves
• enlarged spinal nerve roots and lesions in sciatic nerves showing abnormal nonmyelinating axons
