Firstly, the differentially expressed genes (DEGs) between SNB19 human glioma cells transduced with non-target control small hairpin RNA (shRNA) lentiviral vectors for 72 h and SNB19 human glioma cells transduced with CEBPB shRNA lentiviral vectors for 72 h were identified and annotated. Here, CEBPB is linked to central nervous system cancer.
