Project description:TERT promoter muatations occur frequently in tumors of various origin. We here accessed the frequency of TERT pomoter mutations in 131 human primary neuroblastomas and 20 human neuroblastoma cell lines. No TERT promoter mutations were found in the 131 primary neuroblastomas. However, in the three cell lines SH-SY5Y, SH-EP and SK-N-SH a TERT promoter mutation was detected. Sanger sequencing indicated a homozygous mutation. To confirm loss of heterozygosity (LOH) we performed Affymetrix CytoScanHD SNP arrays. Indeed LOH could be confirmed.
Project description:RNA-sequencing was performed on the following human neuroblastoma cell lines: Kelly, NBL-S, CHP-212, SH-SY5Y, SH-SY5Y LDK-resistant and SH-EP.

SNP arry experiments were performed according to the standard protocol for Affymetrix CytoScanHD arrays (Affymetrix, Santa Clara). Briefly, a 250 ng sample of genomic DNA was digested with NspI, ligated to adaptors, amplified by PCR, fragmented and biotin-labeled. The labeled samples were hybridized to Affymetrix CytoscanHD arrays, followed by washing, staining and scanning in the Affymetrix GeneChip Scanner 3000. Analysis was performed using the Affymetrix Chromosome Analysis Suite v2.1.
Project description:We analyzed the chromatin occupancies of active (H3K27ac and H3K4me3) and repressive (H3K27me3) histone marks in adrenergic (SH-SY5Y parental) and mesenchymal (SH-SY5Y LDK-resistant and SH-EP) neuroblastoma cells.
Project description:8 neuroblastoma (NB) cell lines (CLB-GA, IMR-32, SH-SY5Y, N206, CHP-902R, LAN-2, SK-N-AS, SJNB-1) were profiled on the Affymetrix HGU-133plus2,0 platform before and after treatment with DAC (2'-deoxy-5-azacytidine) to investigate the influence on expression after inhibiting DNA-methylation 8 NB cell lines were included (CLB-GA, IMR-32, SH-SY5Y, N206, CHP-902R, LAN-2, SK-N-AS, SJNB-1), before and after treatment with 3 micromolars of DAC for 3 days
Project description:8 neuroblastoma (NB) cell lines (CLB-GA, IMR-32, SH-SY5Y, N206, CHP-902R, LAN-2, SK-N-AS, SJNB-1) their methylome is determined by sequencing after MBD2-capture using MethylCollector (ActiveMotif) 8 NB cell lines were included (CLB-GA, IMR-32, SH-SY5Y, N206, CHP-902R, LAN-2, SK-N-AS, SJNB-1) in this study. After shearing (fragments of about 200 bp), DNA was captured using MBD2-capture (MethylCollector - ActiveMotif) followed by library preparation and multiplexing. Captured sequence tags were sequenced paired-end (2 x 45 bp) on Illumina GAIIx.

Project description:Neuroblastoma is a solid pediatric tumor with heterogeneous clinical behaviors. Chemotherapy is widely used to treat neuroblastoma. However, dose-dependent responses and chemoresistance mechanisms of neuroblastoma cells to anticancer drugs remain challenges in various conditions. Here, we investigated the dose-dependent effects of topotecan on human neuroblastoma cells (SK-N-SH, SH-SY5Y, and SK-N-BE) under various nutrient supply conditions. Serum-starved human neuroblastoma cells showed reduced toxicity, and their survival rate increased upon treatment with a high concentration (1 μM) of topotecan. Quantitative profiling of global and phosphoproteome identified 12,959 proteins and 48,812 phosphosites, respectively, from SK-N-SH cells. Network analysis revealed that topotecan up-regulated DNA repair and cholesterol-mediated topotecan efflux, resulting in topotecan resistance. Results of DNA damage assay, cell cycle, and quantitative analyses of membrane cholesterol supported the validity of these resistance factors and their applicability to all neuroblastoma cells investigated in this study. Our results provide a model for high dose-dependent chemoresistance in neuroblastoma cells that could enable a patient-dependent chemotherapy screening strategy.
