MYC overexpression

The c-Myc protein is largely intrinsically disordered and therefore difficult to target with small-molecule inhibitors. For the c-Myc driven tumors, the strong c-Myc interaction with the KIX domain represents a promising druggable target.

Similarly, in mouse models, PMEPA1 overexpression promotes HCC development, which demonstrates its oncogenic role. The identification of PMEPA1 as oncogenic driver in HCC and its role in immune exhaustion and poor clinical outcomes enhances our understanding of HCC pathogenesis and opens new avenues for targeted therapeutic interventions.

Thus, c-MYC overexpression results in different but related tumor types depending on the targeted cell. The GEMMs represent valuable tools for testing immunotherapies and targeted therapies for these diseases.

STM2457 treatment attenuated the serine synthesis pathway, induced oxidative stress, and sensitized HCC cells to sorafenib and lenvatinib treatments. In conclusion, our findings suggest that targeting m6A could be a potential therapeutic strategy for HCC treatment.

Metastatic cells were enriched in the TGFB and VEGF pathways and their inhibition significantly reduced the metastatic burden. Our novel mouse model uncovered NOTCH1 as a driver of temporal plasticity and metastasis in HCC, the latter of which is, in part, mediated by angiogenesis and TGFß pathways.

Our study revealed that the combination of CAPE with docetaxel is more effective at reducing the proliferation and survival of NSCLC cells, and this is via inhibition of c-MYC. Combined therapy of docetaxel and CAPE may benefit patients with NSCLC.

The algorithm rescued 2 and 1 MYCr cases included in score 1 from both series. In conclusion, we suggest that both approaches combining the interpretation of CD10/LMO2/MYC by immunohistochemistry are useful to screen for MYCr.

These same resections were obtained from only individuals who had histories of alcohol consumption that were also diagnosed with cirrhosis, metastasis and had viral hepatitis suggesting etiology-specific mechanisms of cancer progression. Finally, analysis performed in Hep3B cells determined that alterations in MYC expression promoted the predicted changes in ZEB1 and MIZ1 expression and/or distributions and in markers for EMT further suggesting a relationship among these three transcription factors in HCC and their correlation to driving EMT.

Adaptable to other proteins of interest, this approach provides valuable insights into neuroblastoma protein synthesis. For complete details on the use and execution of this protocol, please refer to Chittavanich et al.1.

Our findings support a MYC-induced dependency on the serine/glycine pathway in MBGRP3 that represents a novel therapeutic treatment strategy for this poor prognosis disease group.

The study demonstrates the efficacy of BMSCs-EVs in delivering miR-766-3p to CRC cells, leading to the suppression of the MYC/CDK2 signaling pathway and hindering cancer progression.

Furthermore, we highlight Food and Drug Administration (FDA)-approved drugs for AML, and the results of preclinical and clinical studies on novel agents that have been or are currently being tested for efficacy and tolerability in AML therapy. Overall, this review summarizes our current knowledge of the molecular processes that promote leukemogenesis, as well as the various agents that intervene in specific pathways and directly or indirectly modulate c-MYC to disrupt AML pathogenesis and drug resistance.
