c-myc overexpression causes anaplasia in medulloblastoma.
Both anaplasia and increased c-myc gene expression have been shown to be negative prognostic indicators for survival in medulloblastoma patients. myc gene amplification has been identified in many large cell/anaplastic medulloblastoma, but no causative link between c-myc and anaplastic changes has been established. To address this, we stably overexpressed c-myc in two medulloblastoma cell lines...
متن کاملDysregulated CXCR4 expression promotes lymphoma cell survival and independently predicts disease progression in germinal center B-cell-like diffuse large B-cell lymphoma
Abnormal expression of the chemokine receptor CXCR4 plays an essential role in tumor cell dissemination and disease progression. However, the significance of CXCR4 overexpression in de novo diffuse large B cell lymphoma (DLBCL) is unknown. In 743 patients with de novo diffuse large B cell lymphoma (DLBCL) who received standard Rituximab-CHOP immunochemotherapy, we assessed the expression of CXC...
متن کاملc-myc Suppression in Burkitt's lymphoma cells.
The purpose of the study was to elucidate how DNA tetraplex (also referred to as G-quadruplex)-forming oligonucleotides mediate suppression of the human c-myc gene at the level of transcription initiation. A 22-base-long oligonucleotide, which is rich in guanines and folds into an intrastrand DNA tetraplex under physiological conditions, was administered to a Burkitt's lymphoma cell line overex...
متن کاملCritical role of SHP2 (PTPN11) signaling in germinal center-derived lymphoma.
Germinal center lymphoma is a heterogeneous human lymphoma entity. Here we report that constitutive activity of SHP2 (PTPN11) and its downstream kinase ERK is essential for the viability of germinal center lymphoma cells and disease progression. Mechanistically, SHP2/ERK inhibition impedes c-Myc transcriptional activity, which results in the repression of proliferative phenotype signatures of g...
متن کاملExpression of the human germinal center-associated lymphoma (HGAL) protein, a new marker of germinal center B-cell derivation.
We identified the human germinal center-associated lymphoma (HGAL) in gene-expression profiling studies of diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL). The expression of HGAL correlated with survival in patients with DLBCL. The HGAL gene is the human homolog of M17, a mouse gene expressed specifically in normal germinal center (GC) B cells. We generated a monoclonal antibody against the HGAL protein ...
