Inactivation of Bap1 Cooperates with Losses of Nf2 and Cdkn2a to Drive the Development of Pleural Malignant Mesothelioma in Conditional Mouse Models
Mutations/deletions of BAP1, CDKN2A, and NF2 are the most frequent genetic lesions in human MM. We introduced various combinations of these deletions in the pleura of conditional knockout (CKO) mice, focusing on the contribution of Bap1 loss. Overall design: RNA-seq analysis of MMs from triple-CKO vs. double KO mice revealed enrichment of genes transcriptionally regulated by the polycomb repressive complex 2 (PRC2) and others previously implicated in known Bap1-related cellular processes.
