Somatic CRISPR tumorigenesis and multiomic analysis reveal a pentose phosphate pathway disruption vulnerability in MPNSTs
13 Aug 2025
Abstract excerpt
Malignant peripheral nerve sheath tumors (MPNSTs) are aggressive and chemo-resistant sarcomas with poor survival rates. Loss of CDKN2A or P53 following NF1 disruption is a key event in MPNST development. Here, we used CRISPR-Cas9 somatic tumorigenesis in mice to identify transcriptomic and metabolomic features distinguishing CDKN2A - versus P53 -deleted MPNSTs. Convergent, multiomic analyses revealed that CDKN2A...
