Peripheral nerve sheath tumours are hallmarks of neurofibromatosis type 1 (NF1). Development of plexiform neurofibromas to malignant peripheral nerve sheath tumours (MPNST) is common. The NF1 gene promoter harbours a hypomethylated CpG island. Thus, methylation changes may be involved in the development of different types of neurofibromas and malignant transformation. We investigated NF1-associated...
Neurofibromatosis type 2 (NF2) is an autosomal dominant disease of the nervous system characterized by multiple schwannomas. The NF2 gene product, termed schwannomin or merlin, was hypothesized to function as a cytoskeleton–membrane linking protein due to homology to members of the protein 4.1 superfamily and to function as a tumor suppressor. We isolated and characterized pure Schwann cell cultures...
