Quick Overview

Human neuroblastoma cell line with MYCN amplification

Detailed Summary

The KP-N-YN cell line is a human neuroblastoma cell line derived from a long-term survivor of neuroblastoma. It is characterized by MYCN amplification, a common genetic alteration in neuroblastoma that is associated with aggressive disease and poor prognosis. This cell line has been used in studies investigating the molecular mechanisms of neuroblastoma progression and therapeutic targets. The cell line exhibits both neuroblastic (N-type) and substrate-adhesive (S-type) morphological features, reflecting the heterogeneity of neuroblastoma tumors. Research on this cell line has contributed to understanding the role of MYCN in tumor biology and the development of targeted therapies.
