However, using four model systems, we showed that long-term silencing of MYCN induces only a small loss of DNA methylation at the RASSF1A promoter in MYCN amplified neuroblastoma cell lines and over-expression of MYCN does not induce any DNA methylation, suggesting that MYCN is not critical for DNA hypermethylation in neuroblastoma.
