Trajectory analysis reveals an uncommitted neuroblastic state in MYCN-driven neuroblastoma development
Ontology highlight
ABSTRACT: We analyzed the transcriptomic features of spontaneous regression in pre-cancerous neuroblasts using Th-MYCN mice, an animal model that closely resembles human neuroblastoma. Single-cell transcriptomic analysis of ganglion tissues from Th-MYCN mice was conducted to elucidate the cellular and molecular underpinnings. Trajectory analysis of pre-cancerous neuroblasts revealed a distinct subtype we designated as "uncommitted" cells, characterized by the expression of neuronal genes, indicative of a semi-differentiated state. Samples with predicted failed tumorigenesis had a greater proportion of these uncommitted cells, hinting at their association with spontaneous regression.
