The transition of differentiated Schwann cells to support of nerve repair after injury is accompanied by remodeling of the Schwann cell epigenome. The EED-containing polycomb repressive complex 2 (PRC2) catalyzes histone H3K27 methylation and represses key nerve repair genes such as Shh, Gdnf, and Bdnf, and their activation is accompanied by loss of H3K27 methylation. Analysis of nerve injury in mice with a Schwann cell-specific loss of EED showed the reversal of polycomb repression is required and a rate limiting step in the increased transcription of Neuregulin 1 (type I), which is required for efficient remyelination. However, mouse nerves with EED-deficient Schwann cells display slow axonal regeneration with significantly low expression of axon guidance genes, including Sema4f and Cntf. Finally, EED loss causes impaired Schwann cell proliferation after injury with significant induction of the Cdkn2a cell cycle inhibitor gene. Interestingly, PRC2 subunits and CDKN2A are commonly co-mutated in the transition from benign neurofibromas to malignant peripheral nerve sheath tumors (MPNST's). RNA-seq analysis of EED-deficient mice identified PRC2-regulated molecular pathways that may contribute to the transition to malignancy in neurofibromatosis.
