Beyond meningioma, NF2/Merlin inactivation is also associated with schwannoma tumorigenesis15, and Merlin suppression with sgNF2 in human HEI-193 schwannoma cells stably expressing CRISPRi machinery also attenuated Wnt signaling compared to sgNTC (Extended Data Fig. 4b, c). This evidence concerns the gene NF2 and schwannoma.
