For example, Pask was more abundant in mouse embryonic stem (ES) cells and progenitor cell types such as C2C12 myoblasts, C3H10T1/2 mesenchymal stem cells, Neuro2a neuroblastoma cells and immune progenitor cells compared to mouse embryonic fibroblasts, other somatic cell types and adult tissues (Figure 1—figure supplement 1A) (BioGPS:Pask, GeneAtlas MOE430). This evidence concerns the gene PASK and neuroblastoma.
