Project description:The transcriptional repressor ZBTB18 was overexpressed in the brain tumor stem cell-like BTSC233 by lentiviral transduction. Three independent transduction were performed (biological replicates) and analyzed by gene expression aray. Gene set enrichemnt analysis (GSEA) showed changes in the expression of mesenchymal signature. A subset of genes was further valiadted by qPCR. These results indicate a role of ZBTB18 as repressor of mesenchymal genes in Glioblastoma.
