Project description:The DNA isolated from 44 either frozen or FFPE Neuroendocrine Neoplasm (NEN) was analysed by NGS, to identify genes more likely to be subject to sequence variations among 523 cancer-related ones.
Project description:Neuroendocrine prostate cancer (NEPC) is a subset of castration-resistant prostate cancer (CRPC) and is thought to derive from prostate adenocarcinoma. However, the cellular basis responsible for Neuroendocrine differentiation (NED) is still under debate. Here, we characterized the tumor cell diversity of 6 CRPC patients using single cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) and detected NED in four patients.
