Based upon cytogenetic profiles, previous studies have categorized NB tumours into three major subtypes [10,11]: Subtype 1 representing favourable tumours with near triploidy and high expression of the Neurotrophic receptor TrkA (or NTRK1), mostly encompassing non-metastatic NB stages 1 and 2; subtype 2A representing unfavourable NB stages 3 and 4, with 11q deletion (Del11q) and 17q gain (Gain17q) but without MNA; subtype 2B representing unfavourable widespread NB stages 3 and 4 with MNA often together with 1p deletion (Del1p) and Gain17q. Here, NTRK1 is linked to neoplasm.
