Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The purpose of this study is to address the early event of gliomagenesis. I hypothesized that initiation of tumorigenesis is deviation from a normal neural differentiation. First, I established a methodology of single cell gene expression analysis, which enables to analyze dynamics of transcriptome during the differentiation. By combination with bioinformatical analysis, I successfully re-order the single cell samples in order to differentiation stage. Then, I applied this technique to neural differentiation, and demonstrated the dynamic alteration of transcription during neural differentiation. And also, I could identify cell populations that deviated from normal differentiation. The molecular mechanism that is responsible for branching may facilitate the molecular understanding of gliomagenesis.
