To examine the effect of the aurora kinases in glioma cells, two siRNAs specific to aurora kinase A, aurora kinase B, aurora kinase C, and a negative control siRNA (non‐target siRNA) were transiently transfected into adult (U87, LNZ308, T98G) and pediatric (KNS42, SJG2, and SF8628) cell lines. This evidence concerns the gene AURKA and glioma.
