Therapeutic potential of targeting MYCN: A case series report of neuroblastoma with MYCN amplification. [PDF]
Neuroblastoma (NB) with MYCN amplification has a poor prognosis and high mortality. The potential molecular biological relationship between clinical features and MYCN amplification should be explored.NB patients were examined by fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) for MYCN amplification in the tumor mass or bone marrow samples to determine ...

Mechanisms of embryonal tumor initiation: Distinct roles for MycN expression and MYCN amplification [PDF]
The mechanisms causing persistence of embryonal cells that later give rise to tumors is unknown. One tumorigenic factor in the embryonal childhood tumor neuroblastoma is the MYCN protooncogene. Here we show that normal mice developed neuroblast hyperplasia in paravertebral ganglia at birth that completely regressed ...

MYCN gene amplification in rhabdomyosarcoma [PDF]
Amplification of the MYCN oncogene, formerly known as N-myc, has been seen in several malignant tumors, particularly neuroblastoma, where its association with a poor clinical outcome is the clearest example of a clinically relevant oncogene mutation in any human cancer.The incidence and clinical significance of MYCN amplification in rhabdomyosarcoma ...

Proteogenomic characterization of cholangiocarcinoma
Proteogenomic characterization of cholangiocarcinoma with therapeutic strategies Abstract Background and Aims Cholangiocarcinoma (CCA) is a highly heterogeneous cancer with limited understanding and few effective therapeutic approaches. We aimed at providing a proteogenomic CCA characterization to inform biological processes and treatment ...

MYCN Amplifications and Metabolic Rewiring in Neuroblastoma
Cancer is a disease caused by (epi)genomic and gene expression abnormalities and characterized by metabolic phenotypes that are substantially different from the normal phenotypes of the tissues of origin. Metabolic reprogramming is one of the key features of tumors, including those established in the human nervous system.

Functional MYCN signature predicts outcome of neuroblastoma irrespective of MYCN amplification [PDF]
Neuroblastoma is a pediatric tumor of the sympathetic nervous system. MYCN (V-myc myelocytomatosis viral-related oncogene, neuroblastoma derived [avian]) is amplified in 20% of neuroblastomas, and these tumors carry a poor prognosis.

MYCN in Neuroblastoma: “Old Wine into New Wineskins”
MYCN Proto-Oncogene, BHLH Transcription Factor (MYCN) has been one of the most studied genes in neuroblastoma. It is known for its oncogenetic mechanisms, as well as its role in the prognosis of the disease and it is considered one of the prominent ...

AbstractBackgroundMYCN amplification as a common genetic alteration that correlates with a poor prognosis for neuroblastoma (NB) patients. However, given the challenge of directly targeting MYCN, indirect strategies to modulate MYCN by interfering with its cofactors are attractive in NB treatment. Although cyclin B1 interacting protein 1 (CCNB1IP1) has
