To identify transcripts that are differentially expressed in the MYCN amplified vs MYCN non-amplified cell lines using Next Generation Sequencing
The aims of this study are to compare transcripts that are differentially expressed in the MYCN amplified compare to the MYCN non-amplified neuroblastoma cell lines, in particular, long non-coding RNAs. Methods: Ribosomal depleted RNAs from six human neuroblastoma cell lines were subjected to deep sequencing, using Illumina Hiseq. Results: We identified 459 transcripts are differentially expressed betweeen the MYCN amplified and the MYCN non-amplified cell lines. Conclusions: We have identified a novel long noncoding RNA lncNB1 that is highly expressed in the MYCN amplified compared to the MYCN non-amplified cell lines. Overall design: mRNA profiles from 4 MYCN amplified and two MYCN non-amplified human neuroblastomas cell lines were generated by deep sequencing using Illumina Hiseq.
