Mechanisms of c-myc degradation by nickel compounds and hypoxia. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2009 Nickel (Ni) compounds have been found to cause cancer in humans and animal models and to transform cells in culture. At least part of this effect is mediated by stabilization of hypoxia inducible factor (HIF1a) and activating its downstream signaling ...

PRMT5-dependent transcriptional repression of c-Myc target genes promotes gastric cancer progression
Theranostics, 2020 The proto-oncogene c-Myc regulates multiple biological processes mainly through selectively activating gene expression. However, the mechanisms underlying c-Myc-mediated gene repression in the context of cancer remain less clear.

Runx transcription factors repress human and murine c-Myc expression in a DNA-binding and C-terminally dependent manner. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2013 The transcription factors Runx1 and c-Myc have individually been shown to regulate important gene targets as well as to collaborate in oncogenesis. However, it is unknown whether there is a regulatory relationship between the two genes. In this study, we

Brief inactivation of c-Myc is not sufficient for sustained regression of c-Myc-induced tumours of pancreatic islets and skin epidermis [PDF]
, 2004 Background Tumour regression observed in many conditional mouse models following oncogene inactivation provides the impetus to develop, and a platform to preclinically evaluate, novel therapeutics to inactivate specific oncogenes.

Overexpression of c-Myc and cell immortalization alters c-Myc phosphorylation [PDF]
Oncogene, 1997 Using an extensive series of deletion and site-specific mutation constructs, we have identified five new phosphorylation sites in c-Myc in the N-terminal transactivation domain and near the C-terminal DNA binding/heterodimerization domain. We have also found that Thr-58 phosphorylation is regulated by specific cellular events.

Sequential and coordinated actions of c-Myc and N-Myc control appendicular skeletal development. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2011 BACKGROUND: During limb development, chondrocytes and osteoblasts emerge from condensations of limb bud mesenchyme. These cells then proliferate and differentiate in separate but adjacent compartments and function cooperatively to promote bone growth ...

c-MYC Copy-Number Gain Is an Independent Prognostic Factor in Patients with Colorectal Cancer. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2015 The aim of this study was to determine the incidence and clinicopathological significance of c-MYC gene copy-number (GCN) gain in patients with primary colorectal cancer (CRC).The c-MYC GCN was investigated in 367 consecutive CRC patients (cohort 1) by ...
