1. lipid binding results in the open conformation of neurofibromin 2 and lipid binding is necessary for inhibiting cell proliferation PMID: 29626191
2. Cell viability results showed that three agents (GSK2126458, Panobinostat, CUDC-907) had the greatest activity across schwannoma and meningioma cell systems, but merlin status did not significantly influence response PMID: 29897904
3. Merlin loss increased oxidative stress causing aberrant activation of Hedgehog signaling in in vitro. PMID: 28112165
4. NF2 promoter gene mutations occurred in medulloblastoma (MB) patients.

NF2 protein was mainly expressed in the nucleus in MB patients, while the NF2 protein was mainly expressed in the cytoplasm in the controls. PMID: 29637450
5. Study summarizes the current knowledge of molecular events triggered by NF2/merlin inactivation, which lead to the development of mesothelioma and other cancers. Genetic alterations in NF2 that abrogate merlin's functional activity are found in about 40% of malignant mesothelioma (MM), indicating the importance of NF2 inactivation in MM development and progression. [review] PMID: 29587439
6. Study identified missense NF2 mutations in 1.9% hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) and 5.3% intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma (ICC). Allele frequency of NF2 IVS4-39 A/A was significantly higher in HCCs. Also, NF2/Merlin showed a dual role as a tumorigenic gene and tumor-suppressor gene; Merlin was expressed at higher levels in HCC tumors ; while the rate of Merlin upregulation was lower in poorly differentiated ICCs. PMID: 29130106

8. The genetic alterations observed in the NF2 gene indicated that spinal schwannomas are associated with genetic alterations also found in other schwannomas and type 2 Neurofibromatosis, which reinforces the etiological role of this gene. PMID: 29599333
9. Methylation of NF2 and DNMT1 was markedly increased, and miR-152-3p was downregulated in GBM tissues and glioma cells. Both knockdown of DNMT1 and overexpression miR-152-3p showed that demethylation activated the expression of NF2. PMID: 28764788
10. The acquired sensitivity to erlotinib supports the known crosstalk between MET and the HER family of receptors. For the first time, we show inactivation of NF2 during acquisition of resistance to MET-TKI that may explain the refractoriness to erlotinib in these cells. PMID: 28396363
11. Genetic data coupled with transcriptomic data allowed the identification of a new malignant pleural mesothelioma (MPM)molecular subgroup, C2(LN), characterized by a co-occurring mutation in the LATS2 and NF2 genes in the same MPM. MPM patients of this subgroup presented a poor prognosis. Coinactivation of LATS2 and NF2 leads to loss of cell contact inhibition between MPM cells PMID: 28003305

21. NF2 localizes in nucleus when Ser518 is not phosphorylated, while phosphorylated form is present in cytoplasm and plasma membrane. Data suggest that binding of NF2 to TIMAP and EBP50 is critical in nuclear localization of NF2. (NF2 = neurofibromin 2; TIMAP = TGF-beta-inhibited membrane-associated protein; EBP50 = Ezrin-Radixin-Mosein binding phosphoprotein 50) PMID: 27871951
22. Low merlin expression is associated with meningioma and schwannoma. PMID: 28729415

26. The s proposed that NF2 behaves as a protein sensing tissue damage and aromatase-driven local estrogen formation, eventually leading to regulation of stem cells differentiation and tissue repair by liver cancer cells. (Review) PMID: 27289045
27. co-deletion of Rac1 with Nf2 blocks tumor initiation but paradoxically exacerbates hepatomegaly induced by Nf2 loss, which can be suppressed either by treatment with pro-oxidants or by co-deletion of Yap. PMID: 27818180
28. Data suggest that, at least using the commercial antibodies used in this study, immunohistochemical staining for NF2 (neurofibromin 2), LATS2 (large tumor suppressor kinase 2), and YAP/TAZ (nuclear translocation of complex of Yes-associated protein [YAP] with transcriptional coactivator with PDZ-binding motif [TAZ]) is not helpful for differential diagnosis of mesothelioma versus a benign proliferation.
