Interaction of the oncoprotein transcription factor MYC with its chromatin cofactor WDR5 is essential for tumor maintenance. [PDF]
The oncoprotein transcription factor MYC is overexpressed in the majority of cancers. Key to its oncogenic activity is the ability of MYC to regulate gene expression patterns that drive and maintain the malignant state. MYC is also considered a validated

Appropriately differentiated ARPE-19 cells regain phenotype and gene expression profiles similar to those of native RPE cells. [PDF]
PurposeThe RPE cell line ARPE-19 provides a dependable and widely used alternative to native RPE. However, replication of the native RPE phenotype becomes more difficult because these cells lose their specialized phenotype after multiple passages ...

Role of retinoid mediated microphthalmia-associated transcription factor (MITF) in melanoma
Retinoic acid is the most effective therapeutic drug for the treatment of many types of cancer, including melanoma. All-trans retinoic acid (ATRA) increases the protein level of MITF in melanoma cells within 2 to 4 days (Chan, 2007), indicating that RA induced MITF plays a vital role in its anti-proliferative action. On the contrary, MITF silencing can
