Abstract INTRODUCTION Diffuse midline glioma (DMG) is the most lethal of all childhood cancers. LIN28B is a RNA binding protein expressed in a variety of cancers, which suppresses the let-7 family of microRNAs, which in turn suppresses a plethora of oncogenes. However, the role of LIN28B in DMG has not yet been explored. Therefore, we sought to determine the pattern of expression and potential function of LIN28B in DMG using rare DMG cell lines. METHODS All studies were performed on DMG cell lines (n = 6) and cont…
