We found that cells with XIST KD were significantly enriched for M-CSC genes signature for both sgXIST7 (NES = 1.42) and sgXIST9 (NES = 1.27), validating increased mesenchymal-like cancer SC population in ovarian cancer cell with loss of XIST (Fig. 4D). The gene discussed is XIST; the disease is ovarian carcinoma.
