Abstract excerpt
Neuroblastomas in culture are characterized by the presence of 2 morphologically and biochemically distinct phenotypes (i.e., neural "N-type" and flat substrate-adherent "S-type") which undergo transdifferentiation. Human neuroblastoma SK-N-BE(2) cells differentiate toward a neural phenotype upon retinoic acid (RA) treatment. However, we recently showed that, during the RA treatment, a subset of SK-N-BE(2) cells...
