N normal phenotype
mortality/aging
• mice exhibit a decrease in survival rate when the Nf2 and Trp53 alleles are carried in cis as opposed to trans, but live longer than conditional mutants carrying Tg(P0-Cre)2Gth

neoplasm
• between 3.5 and 13.5 months,19% of mice develop malignant peripheral nerve sheath tumors when the Nf2 and Trp53 alleles are carried in cis
• however, no tumors form in mice when the Nf2 and Trp53 alleles are carried in trans
• when the Nf2 and Trp53 alleles are carried in trans mice develop osteogenic tumors not restricted to neural crest-derived bone
• 81% of mice develop osteogenic (osteomas and osteosarcomas) tumors when the Nf2 and Trp53 alleles are carried in cis
• 81% of mice develop osteogenic (osteomas and osteosarcomas) tumors when the Nf2 and Trp53 alleles are carried in cis

skeleton
• when the Nf2 and Trp53 alleles are carried in trans mice develop osteogenic tumors not restricted to neural crest-derived bone
• 81% of mice develop osteogenic (osteomas and osteosarcomas) tumors when the Nf2 and Trp53 alleles are carried in cis
• 81% of mice develop osteogenic (osteomas and osteosarcomas) tumors when the Nf2 and Trp53 alleles are carried in cis

nervous system
• between 3.5 and 13.5 months,19% of mice develop malignant peripheral nerve sheath tumors when the Nf2 and Trp53 alleles are carried in cis
• however, no tumors form in mice when the Nf2 and Trp53 alleles are carried in trans
