Meflin/ISLR is a meningeal cell‐specific marker involved in the development of meninges and meningioma progression

open access: yesBrain Pathology, Volume 36, Issue 2, March 2026.
Mesenchymal stromal cell‐and fibroblast‐expressing Linx paralogue (Meflin) is expressed in embryonic meninges and contributes to meningeal homeostasis. In meningiomas, elevated Meflin correlates with higher grade and recurrence. Single‐cell RNA sequencing revealed a Meflin‐high tumor cell subset marked by reduced proliferation, WNT6 expression, and ...
