Abstract excerpt
The histone methyltransferase PRC2 plays a complex role in cancer. Malignant peripheral nerve sheath tumors (MPNSTs) are aggressive sarcomas with frequent loss-of-function mutations in PRC2 that are associated with poor outcome. Here, we identify a critical role for PRC2 loss in driving MPNST metastasis. PRC2-dependent metastatic phenotypes included increased collagen-dependent invasion, upregulation of...
