Mashup Score: 1Going to the dark(er) side: Stanford Medicine study shows how cancer gene tricks immune cells - 1 year(s) ago
A novel Stanford School of Medicine partnership uncovers a direct link between a cancer-associated gene, Myc, and sugar patterns on cancer cell surfaces that tell immune cells to stand down.

Mashup Score: 3Extrachromosomal DNA Amplification Contributes to Small Cell Lung Cancer Heterogeneity and is Associated with Worse Outcomes - 1 year(s) ago
Abstract. Small-cell lung cancer is an aggressive neuroendocrine lung cancer. Oncogenic MYC amplifications drive SCLC heterogeneity, but the genetic mechanisms of MYC amplification and phenotypic plasticity, characterized by neuroendocrine and non-neuroendocrine cell states is not known. Here, we integrate whole-genome sequencing, long-range optical mapping, single-cell DNA sequencing, and…

SCLC is an aggressive tumor. #MYC amplification is a driver of #SCLC heterogeneity. Extra-chromosomal DNAs bring to proximity enhancers & oncogenes, creating transcription-amplifying units, driving high MYC gene dosage. This can be seen in #liquidbiopsies https://t.co/dHKke78kzO https://t.co/9DGTqykrf8

Abstract. Relapse is the leading cause of death in patients with medulloblastoma, the most common malignant pediatric brain tumor. A better understanding of the mechanisms underlying recurrence could lead to more effective therapies for targeting tumor relapses. Here, we observed that SOX9, a transcription factor and stem cell/glial fate marker, is limited to rare, quiescent cells in high-risk…

MYC is a transcription factor frequently overexpressed in cancer. To determine how MYC drives the neoplastic phenotype, we performed transcriptomic analysis using a panel of MYC-driven autochthonous transgenic mouse models. We found that MYC elicited gene expression changes mostly in a tissue- and lineage-specific manner across B-cell lymphoma, T-cell acute lymphoblastic lymphoma, hepatocellular…

The NOTCH1-MYC-CD44 axis integrates cell-intrinsic and extrinsic signaling to ensure the persistence of leukemia-initiating cells (LICs) in T-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (T-ALL) but a common pathway to target this circuit is poorly defined. Bromodomain-containing protein 4 (BRD4) is implicated to have a role in the transcriptional regulation of oncogenes MYC and targets downstream of…
