Genes over-expressed in NC progenitors were enriched in both samples, but with a clear difference between the two groups: NB5t primary cells showed high expression of NCSC genes related to the mesenchymal phenotype of the NC (such as S100A10, EDNRA or TGFB1) [28–30], while NB5t tumor sample was enriched in NCSC genes related to neural differentiation (PHOX2B and CHGA) [31, 32]. This evidence concerns the gene CHGA and neoplasm.
