Project description:To study the gene expression changes after niclosamide ethanolamine (NEN) treament in neuroblastoma cell, we treated SK-N-BE(2) with 1µM NEN for 24hours. The RNA were extracted from the cells and submitted for RNA sequencing.
Project description:Genome wide DNA methylation profiling of neuroblastoma cell SK-N-BE(2) treated by 1µM NEN under normoxia and hypoxia for 24hrs. The IInfinium Human MethylationEPIC BeadChip v1.0 B5 was used to obtain DNA methylation profiles across approximately 850,000 methylation sites in the genome of neuroblastoma. Samples included 4 group with 3 biological replicates: (1) normoxia_CTRL (2) normoxia_NEN (3) hypoxia_CTRL (4) hypoxia_NEN
Project description:<p>Neuroblastoma is the most common extra-cranial solid tumor in children. It represents 8% to 10% of all childhood cancers. Stage 4 Neuroblastoma is characterized by its clinical heterogeneous outcome. The special category, stage 4S tumors (2-5% of all NB) are chemo-sensitive, and the patients show spontaneous regression. On the other hand, MYCN amplification (25-30% of all NB) is associated with poor outcome of neuroblastoma, thus we further categorize stage 4 neuroblastoma into MYCN non-amplified and MYCN amplified group. Here we use transcriptome sequencing to characterize the transcriptome in 29 stage 4 Neuroblastoma samples.</p>
Project description:Inducible MYCN-knockdown, followed by RNA-seq analysis in the MYCN-amplified neuroblastoma cell line IMR5-75, reveals profound time-dependent transcriptome changes.
Project description:Inducible MYCN-knockdown, followed by RNA-seq analysis in the MYCN-amplified neuroblastoma cell line IMR5-75, reveals profound time-dependent transcriptome changes. For modulation of MYCN levels, stable neuroblastoma cell models were used where MYCN can be downregulated via vector-based hairpin RNA induction upon addition of 1µg/ml tetracycline (IMR5-75-shMYCN. From cells treated either with tetracycline or solvent (ethanol), RNA was isolated at time points 6 hours, 12 hours and 24 hours. Experiments were done in duplicates. RNA was sequenced.
