Some schwannomas act like injured nerves--mechanism for growth? Great work by @BhuviP TomBarrett with @SidPuram @allegra_petti labs https://t.co/14jlKEKSH3. Also see wonderful study on schwannoma epigenetic reprogramming by @LabRaleigh

Is schwannoma a prototypical epigenetic and microenvironment driven disease? We think so. Many years in the making on this one.
2 #schwannoma pre-prints! @LabRaleigh and lead author @sjohnliu identify epigenetic mechanisms underlying schwannoma molecular groups: https://t.co/cYNkf0t4YW. Meanwhile, @AlbertHKimMDPhD finds nerve injury-like cell states distinguish schwannoma cells: https://t.co/DMjcB10WrR.
