(A) MYCN, a validated target of miR-34a, mRNA levels were significantly reduced in GD2-miR34a-NP treated NB1691luc tumors relative to negative controls (**p<0.001, n=8) (B) qPCR analysis of SK-N-ASluc tumors did not indicate a statistically significant difference between anti-GD2-miR34a-NP and anti-GD2-miRneg-NP treated tumours, potentially because levels of MYCN expression are very low in this cell line. Three SK-N-AS tumors treated with negative control nanoparticles appeared to have somewhat higher expression then the median, although this level of expression is very low compared to MYCN amplified tumors (C) MYCN reduction in NB1691luc was validated at a protein level by Western Blot and (D) protein suppression was quantified using densitometry. NME1, a validated MYCN target, had reduced mRNA levels in anti-GD2-miR34a-NP treated NB1691luc tumors (E) and SK-N-ASluc tumors (F) relative to negative controls (*p<0.05, n=8), as evaluated by qPCR.
