Members of the myc oncogene family such as c, N-, and L-myc are expressed in many malignant tumors. Expression of c-, N-, and L-myc oncogenes in 7 human neuroblastoma cell lines (GOTO, IMR-32, TGW, SCCH-26, TNB 9, NBL-S, and SK-N-SH), a human small cell lung carcinoma SBC-5 cell line, and a human monocytic leukemia THP-1-S cell line at mRNA and protein levels was studied to know the specificity of a newly developed antibody against homologous region at C-terminus of N-Myc, designated as anti pan-Myc antibody. By RT-PCR and immunoblot analysis, coexpression of three myc genes was detected in all neuroblastoma cell lines tested. c-and L-myc expression were observed that anti pan-Myc antibody recognizes c-Myc and N-Myc proteins but not L-Myc. These results indicate that neuroblastoma cells may acquire an aberrant transcriptional control system in myc family gene expression.

D009447 Neuroblastoma A common neoplasm of early childhood arising from neural crest cells in the sympathetic nervous system, and characterized by diverse clinical behavior, ranging from spontaneous remission to rapid metastatic progression and death. This tumor is the most common intraabdominal malignancy of childhood, but it may also arise from thorax, neck, or rarely occur in the central nervous system. Histologic features include uniform round cells with hyperchromatic nuclei arranged in nests and separated by fibrovascular septa. Neuroblastomas may be associated with the opsoclonus-myoclonus syndrome.

D005810 Multigene Family A set of genes descended by duplication and variation from some ancestral gene. Such genes may be clustered together on the same chromosome or dispersed on different chromosomes. Examples of multigene families include those that encode the hemoglobins, immunoglobulins, histocompatibility antigens, actins, tubulins, keratins, collagens, heat shock proteins, salivary glue proteins, chorion proteins, cuticle proteins, yolk proteins, and phaseolins, as well as histones, ribosomal RNA, and transfer RNA genes. The latter three are examples of reiterated genes, where hundreds of identical genes are present in a tandem array.

D012333 RNA, Messenger RNA sequences that serve as templates for protein synthesis. Bacterial mRNAs are generally primary transcripts in that they do not require post-transcriptional processing. Eukaryotic mRNA is synthesized in the nucleus and must be exported to the cytoplasm for translation. Most eukaryotic mRNAs have a sequence of polyadenylic acid at the 3' end, referred to as the poly(A) tail. The function of this tail is not known for certain, but it may play a role in the export of mature mRNA from the nucleus as well as in helping stabilize some mRNA molecules by retarding their degradation in the cytoplasm.
