Y-box binding protein-1 (YB-1), a member of cold-shock protein superfamily, has been demonstrated to be associated with tumor malignancy, and is proposed as a prognostic marker in multiple carcinomas. However, the role of YB-1 in neuroblastoma has not been well studied. To investigate the functional role of YB-1 in neuroblastoma, we established a YB-1-silenced neuroblastoma cell strain by inhibiting YB-1 expression using a shRNA knockdown approach. YB-1-silenced neuroblastoma SH-SY5Y cells exhibited a pronounced reduction in cell proliferation and an increased rate of apoptosis in vitro and in vivo xenograft tumor model. At molecular level, YB-1 silencing resulted in downregulation of Cyclin A, Cy... More
