Knockdown of NCOR2 Inhibits Cell Proliferation via BDNF/TrkB/ERK in NF1-Derived MPNSTs.

ABSTRACT: (1) Background: malignant peripheral nerve sheath tumours (MPNSTs) are aggressive Schwann cell-derived sarcomas with dismal prognoses. Previous studies have shown that nuclear receptor corepressor 2 (NCOR2) plays a vital role in neurodevelopment and in various tumours. However, the impact of NCOR2 on the progression of MPNST remains unclear. (2) Methods: by GEO database, MPNST tissue microarray, and NF1-related tumour tissues and cell lines were used to explore NCOR2 expression level in the MPNSTs. The role and mechanism of NCOR2 in NF1-derived MPNSTs were explored by experiments in vivo and in vitro and by transcriptome high-throughput sequencing. (3) Results: NCOR2 expression is significantly elevated in NF1-derived MPNSTs and is associated with patient 10-year survival time. Knockdown o
