Tuberous sclerosis complex (TSC) is a genetic disease caused by a mutation in either the tsc1 or tsc2 tumor suppressor gene.

However, TSC1 also activates Rho and regulates cell adhesion.

In such families the linkage can be used and there is more TSC1 cases which are easily identifiable.
4
The disorder is caused by mutations affecting either of the tumor-suppressor genes, TSC1 and TSC2.
5
The Tuberous Sclerosis Complex component, TSC1, functions as a tumor suppressor via its regulation of diverse cellular processes, particularly cell growth.

Background: Cardiac rhabdomyomas can be prenatally diagnosed in patients with tuberoussclerosiscomplex.
2
Novartis said Afinitor cuts seizures in phase III study in patients with tuberoussclerosiscomplex.
3
Conclusions: Patients with tuberoussclerosiscomplex with reduced residual white matter were neurologically more severely affected.
4
Most patients with tuberoussclerosiscomplex (TSC) develop cortical tubers that cause severe neurological disabilities.

Subependymal giant cell astrocytoma (SEGA) is a rare tumor occurring almost exclusively in patients with tuberoussclerosiscomplex.
