JNJ-64619178 was screened at a range of concentrations (0–50 μM) for its effects on cell viability on MYCN-amplified (SK-N-BE(2)-C and KELLY), MYCN non-amplified (SH-SY5Y and SK-N-FI) neuroblastoma cell lines, and the normal lung fibroblast, MRC-5. This evidence concerns the gene MYCN and neuroblastoma.
