Following a report by Gaur and co-workers [6] which demonstrated that miR331-3p expression is decreased in a panel of CNS tumor cell lines (SNB19, SF295, SF539, U-251 MG, SF268, SNB75) relative to normal brain tissue, we used TaqMan miRNA RTqPCR assays to determine miR-331-3p levels in U-87 MG and U-251 MG GBM cell lines compared with normal brain RNA.

Sample text:```In our previous study, we found that RAG-mediated nicking and cleavage of oligonucleotide substrates containing cRSSs identified from lymphoid malignancies were either unchanged or slightly reduced in the presence of HMGB1 for most cRSSs tested (including LMO2, TAL1, Hox11, SIL, SCL), except Ttg-1 [24].```
