Adrenergic and mesenchymal signatures are identifiable in cell‐free DNA and correlate with metastatic disease burden in children with neuroblastoma
20 Oct 2023
Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Cell-free DNA (cfDNA) profiles of 5-hydroxymethylcytosine (5-hmC), an epigenetic marker of open chromatin and active gene expression, are correlated with metastatic disease burden in patients with neuroblastoma. Neuroblastoma tumors are comprised of adrenergic (ADRN) and mesenchymal (MES) cells, and the relative abundance of each in tumor biopsies has prognostic implications. We hypothesized that ADRN...
