Myogenesis gone awry: the role of developmental pathways in rhabdomyosarcoma
Rhabdomyosarcoma is a soft-tissue sarcoma that occurs most frequently in pediatric patients and has poor survival rates in patients with recurrent or metastatic disease.

Rhabdomyosarcoma (RMS), such as other childhood tumors, has witnessed treatment advancements in recent years. However, high-risk patients continue to face poor survival rates, often attributed to the presence of the PAX3/7-FOXO1 fusion proteins, which ...

Background: MYCN amplification and high expression is associated with pediatric malignancies including neuroblastoma and alveolar rhabdomyosarcoma. MYCN transcription in alveolar rhabdomyosarcomas is driven by a feedback loop with the PAX3::FOXO1 fusion ...

Alveolar rhabdomyosarcoma (ARMS) is an aggressive soft tissue sarcoma typically driven by the oncofusion protein PAX3::FOXO1 (P3F). Despite ARMS tumor histology and transcriptome resembling skeletal muscle, these tumors arise in areas devoid of skeletal ...

PAX3-FOXO1: Zooming in on an “undruggable” target
Driver oncogenes are prime targets for therapy in tumors many of which, including leukemias and sarcomas, express recurrent fusion transcription factors. One specific example for such a cancer type is alveolar rhabdomyosarcoma, which is associated in the majority of cases with the fusion protein PAX3-FOXO1.

Targeting KDM4 for treating PAX3-FOXO1–driven alveolar rhabdomyosarcoma
Science Translational Medicine, 2022Chimeric transcription factors drive lineage-specific oncogenesis but are notoriously difficult to target. Alveolar rhabdomyosarcoma (RMS) is an aggressive childhood soft tissue sarcoma transformed by the pathognomonic Paired Box 3–Forkhead Box O1 (PAX3-FOXO1) fusion protein, which governs a core regulatory circuitry transcription factor ...

Helicase CHD4 is an epigenetic coregulator of PAX3-FOXO1 in alveolar rhabdomyosarcoma [PDF]
A vast number of cancer genes are transcription factors that drive tumorigenesis as oncogenic fusion proteins. Although the direct targeting of transcription factors remains challenging, therapies aimed at oncogenic fusion proteins are attractive as potential treatments for cancer.
