Pathogenic noncoding variants in the neurofibromatosis and schwannomatosis predisposition genes
Neurofibromatosis type 1 (NF1), type 2 (NF2), and schwannomatosis are a group of autosomal dominant disorders that predispose to the development of nerve sheath tumors. Pathogenic variants (PVs) that cause NF1 and NF2 are located in the NF1 and NF2 loci,

SMARCB1 expression in Parental Schwannomatosis Tumors.
qRT-PCR was used to examine expression of SMARCB1 in cell lines and tumors. SMARCB1 expression was downregulated 8 fold in painful schwannomatosis tumor and 5 fold in the non-painful schwannomatosis tumor compared to a non-schwannomatosis schwannomas and
