MYCN is an oncogene frequently overexpressed in pediatric solid tumors whereas few evidences suggest his involvement in the pathogenesis of haematologic malignancies. Here we show that MYCN is overexpressed in a relevant proportion (40 to 50%) of adult and pediatric T-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemias (T-ALL). Focusing on pediatric T-ALL, MYCN-expressing samples were found almost exclusively i...
Neuroblastoma (NB) is the most common malignant disease of infancy. MYCN amplification is a prognostic factor for NB and is a sign of highly malignant disease and poor patient prognosis. In this study, we aimed to investigate novel MYCN-related genes and assess how they affect NB cell behavior. The different gene expression found in 10 MYCN amplification NB tumors and 10 tumors with normal MYCN...
Neuroblastoma is a pediatric solid tumor that originates from embryonic neural crest cells. The MYCN gene locus is frequently amplified in unfavorable neuroblastomas, and the gene product promotes the progression of neuroblastomas. However, the molecular mechanisms by which MYCN amplification contributes to stem cell-like states of neuroblastoma remain elusive. In this study, we show that MYCN ...
Two genes have a synthetically lethal relationship when the silencing or inhibiting of 1 gene is only lethal in the context of a mutation or activation of the second gene. This situation offers an attractive therapeutic strategy, as inhibition of such a gene will only trigger cell death in tumor cells with an activated second oncogene but spare normal cells without activation of the second onco...
Amplification of the MYCN gene, resulting in overexpression of MYCN, distinguishes a subset of neuroblastomas with poor prognosis. The transcription factors driving MYCN expression in neuroblastomas are unknown. In transient-transfection assays, E2F-1, E2F-2, and E2F-3 activate a MYCN reporter construct dependent on the presence of several putative E2F-binding sites. Using chromatin immunopreci...
سابقه و هدف: امروزه در سراسر دنیا اولین اقدام پس از تشخیص هیستوپاتولوژیک نوروبلاستوما، بررسی تکثیر ژنومی mycn بر روی نمونه تومور و بررسی وضعیت امپلیفیکیشن mycn نقش اصلی را در تعین پیش آگهی و استراتژی درمان بیماران مبتلا به نوروبلاستوما دارد. روش بررسی: 75 بیمار شامل، 43 پسر و 32 دختر با میانگین سنی 1/4 سال (124-5/1 ماه) با تشخیص پاتولوژی نوروبلاستوما با استفاده از دو روش کیفی و کمی pcr از نظر ت...
Neuroblastomas with a high mitosis-karyorrhexis index (High-MKI) are often associated with MYCN amplification, MYCN protein overexpression and adverse clinical outcome. However, the prognostic effect of MYC-family protein expression on these neuroblastomas is less understood, especially when MYCN is not amplified. To address this, MYCN and MYC protein expression in High-MKI cases (120 MYCN ampl...
BACKGROUND Neuroblastoma, a cancer derived from precursor cells of the sympathetic nervous system, is a major cause of childhood cancer related deaths. The single most important prognostic indicator of poor clinical outcome in this disease is genomic amplification of MYCN, a member of a family of oncogenic transcription factors. METHODOLOGY We applied MYCN chromatin immunoprecipitation to mic...
Neuroblastoma is a childhood malignancy of the sympathetic nervous system. The tumor exhibits two different phenotypes: favorable and unfavorable. MYCN amplification is associated with rapid tumor progression and the worst neuroblastoma disease outcome. We have previously reported that inhibitors of histone deacetylase (HDAC) and proteasome enhance favorable neuroblastoma gene expression in neu...
The MYCN oncogene is the major negative prognostic marker in neuroblastoma with important roles in both the pathogenesis and clinical behavior of this aggressive malignancy. MYC oncogenes activate both proliferative and apoptotic cellular pathways and, accordingly, inhibition of p53-mediated apoptosis is a prerequisite for MYC-driven tumorigenesis. To identify novel transcriptional targets medi...
