The transcriptional repressor SNAI2 impairs neuroblastoma differentiation and inhibits response to retinoic acid therapy
Analyses of the effect of CRISPR/CAS9 mediated knock out of the EMT-transcription factor SNAI2 on the mRNA expression profile of human neuroblastoma SH-SY5Y cells to identify genes that are differentially expressed upon loss of SNAI2. Results provide insight into genes that are repressed by SNAI2 in neuroblastoma cells under normal culture conditions, where loss of SNAI2 enhances the expression of genes involved in biological processes such as neuron development and neuron differentiation. Overall design: RNAseq of mRNA of pools of SH-SY5Y cells expressing CRISPR/CAS9 + control or SNAI2 targeting gRNA#1 or SNAI2 targeting gRNA#2 in triplicate
