Formaldehyde Activates the RUNX1-ISX Axis to Promote Leukemic Reprogramming, a Pathway Associated with Poor Prognosis in Pediatric B-ALL. (PubMed, Environ Pollut)

Analysis of human samples using immunofluorescence and Pearson correlation further confirmed a strong co-expression relationship between RUNX1 and ISX. Collectively, these findings identify the RUNX1-ISX axis as a critical mediator of formaldehyde-induced oncogenesis in B-ALL and highlight it as a promising therapeutic target for mitigating environmental leukemogenic risk.

A CDCA2-MYC positive feedback loop controls cancer cells survival. (PubMed, Open Biol)

Proximity ligation assays indicate that both cMYC and MYCN are in close proximity to CDCA2 in vivo. Furthermore, we have shown that CDC2A is a bona fide MYC target gene in cancer cells, revealing a reciprocal regulatory loop that could be exploited for therapeutic purposes.

Genomic and immune landscape of recurrent and/or metastatic squamous cell carcinoma of the head and neck progressing on anti-PD1 treatment. (PubMed, Cancer Immunol Res)

Additionally, high B2M expression correlated with greater T cell infiltration and improved survival following anti-PD1 therapy. Tumor cell B2M expression was independent of TMB and PD-L1 expression, suggesting that B2M expression could serve as an additional biomarker for anti-PD1 response.

Circ_0001839 modulates the oncogenic MYCL rs1038259890 (p.G83S) mutation to promote B[a]P-induced malignant transformation in 16HBE cells. (PubMed, J Hazard Mater)

Functional integration analysis demonstrated that circ_0001839 depletion potentiates the oncogenic effects of the MYCL p.Gly83Ser mutation, accelerating B[a]P-induced malignant transformation through dysregulated transcriptional networks. This study explores the regulatory function of circRNAs on gene mutations during chemicals-induced carcinogenesis, offering innovative insights into the toxicological effects and biological pathways of B[a]P on human health.

A MYC Family Switch: L-MYC Drives and Maintains Neuroendocrine Lineage Programs in Prostate Cancer. (PubMed, bioRxiv)

We further identify ASCL1 and INSM1 as upstream regulators of MYCL, establishing a conserved neuroendocrine transcriptional axis. Together, these findings define MYCL as a lineage-specific regulator that drives neuroendocrine identity and plasticity in advanced prostate cancer.

Single-Cell Analysis of L-Myc Expressing Neural Stem Cells and Their Extracellular Vesicles Revealed Distinct Progenitor Populations With Neurogenic Potential. (PubMed, J Extracell Biol)

These LMNSC-EVs (collected from undifferentiated LMNSCs) demonstrated neuroprotective effects in a brain organoid model of methotrexate-induced toxicity when added to corresponding LMNSC01- or LMNSC02-derived brain organoids. LMNSC01- and LMNSC02-derived EVs restored neuronal and astrocytic populations but failed to rescue OPCs. These findings demonstrate the therapeutic potential of LMNSC-derived EVs to counter chemotherapy-induced neurotoxicity by preserving neurones and astrocytes, while highlighting the need for repeated or complementary interventions to restore oligodendrocyte populations.

The Role of MYC in Tumor Immune Microenvironment Regulation: Insights and Future Directions. (PubMed, Front Biosci (Landmark Ed))

While direct targeting of MYC has proven challenging, recent advances in therapeutic strategies, including MYC-MYC-associated factor X (MAX) dimerization inhibitors, bromodomain and extra terminal domain (BET) and cyclin dependent kinase (CDK) inhibitors, synthetic lethality approaches, and epigenetic modulators, have shown promising results in preclinical and early clinical settings. This review discusses MYC's comprehensive impact on TIME and examines the promising therapeutic strategies of MYC inhibition in enhancing the effectiveness of immunotherapies, supported by recent preclinical and clinical findings.

Protein arginine methyltransferase 5 sustains Tip60-EP400 complex via SRSF1 in Merkel cell carcinoma. (PubMed, Life Sci Alliance)

PRMT5 inhibition disrupts this recruitment, leading to widespread splicing defects, including exon skipping and intron retention. These results provide new insights into PRMT5's role in splicing regulation and may have broader implications for targeting splicing dysregulation in MYC-driven cancers.

This study identified genetic mutations in recurrent and/or metastatic NPC. Even in advanced cases, prognosis-related mutations were identified, underscoring the importance of cancer genomic profiling tests.
