The MRN complex is transcriptionally regulated by MYCN during neural cell proliferation to control replication stress [PDF]
The MRE11/RAD50/NBS1 (MRN) complex is a major sensor of DNA double strand breaks, whose role in controlling faithful DNA replication and preventing replication stress is also emerging. Inactivation of the MRN complex invariably leads to developmental and/

Deterministic noiseless amplification of coherent states [PDF]
A universal deterministic noiseless quantum amplifier has been shown to be impossible. However, probabilistic noiseless amplification of a certain set of states is physically permissible. Regarding quantum state amplification as quantum state transformation, we show that deterministic noiseless amplification of coherent states chosen from a proper set ...

MYCN Gene Copy Number Status Detected by FISH Method and Its Correlation with Outcome and Clinicopathological Variables in Childhood Neuroblastoma [PDF]
Background: Neuroblastoma is the most common extracranial solid tumor in children. MYCN gene amplification (MNA) is an independent prognostic factor for rapid tumor progression and poor prognosis, regardless of age and clinical stage.

The potential molecularly therapy target to MYCN‐amplificated neuroblastoma
AbstractNeuroblastoma (NB) is an embryonal deadly cancer in childhood driven by MYC or MYCN‐driven oncogenic signaling. The amplification of MYCN leads to malignant progression of NB and poor prognosis. Traditional chemotherapy is still a standard treatment for NB. Most of the cytostatic drugs take function in anti‐neuroblastoma. However, children with

SALT HRS discovery of the binary nucleus of the Etched Hourglass Nebula MyCn 18 [PDF]
The shaping of various morphological features of planetary nebulae (PNe) is increasingly linked to the role of binary central stars. Identifying a binary within a PN offers a powerful tool with which to directly investigate the formation mechanisms behind these features.

MYCN Function in Neuroblastoma Development
Dysregulated expression of the transcription factor MYCN is frequently detected in nervous system tumors such as childhood neuroblastoma. Here, gene amplification of MYCN is a single oncogenic driver inducing neoplastic transformation in neural crest ...

Early and late effects of pharmacological ALK inhibition on the neuroblastoma transcriptome [PDF]
Background: Neuroblastoma is an aggressive childhood malignancy of the sympathetic nervous system. Despite multi-modal therapy, survival of high-risk patients remains disappointingly low, underscoring the need for novel treatment strategies.

Enhancer hijacking determines extrachromosomal circular MYCN amplicon architecture in neuroblastoma
MYCN amplification is common in neuroblastomas. Here the authors analyse the MYCN amplicon structure and its epigenetic regulation by integrating short- and longread genomic and epigenomic data and find two classes of MYCN amplicons in neuroblastomas ...

In molecular cancer diagnostics, comprehensive genomic profiling (CGP) is going to replace the small NGS panels since it provides all clinically relevant somatic variants as well as genomic biomarkers with clinical value. Here, we compared two CGP assays and demonstrate that the choice for diagnostic implementation will depend on the specific ...
