Two genes have a synthetic lethal relationship when silencing or inhibition of one gene is only lethal in the context of a mutation or activation of the second gene. This situation offers an attractive therapeutic strategy, as inhibition of such a gene will only trigger cell death in tumor cells wit...

Abstract Neuroblastoma (NB) is the most common extracranial solid tumour in children. Half of high-risk NB cases are driven by MYCN amplification, a critical oncogene that is challenging to target therapeutically. To identify novel therapeutic entry points, we investigated the Hippo pathway kinase M...

Enhancer invasion shapes MYCN dependent transcriptional amplification in neuroblastoma
In neuroblastoma, amplification of the oncogenic basic helix-loop-helix (bHLH) transcription factor (TF) MYCN is the defining prognosticator of high-risk disease, occurs in one-third of neuroblastoma, and drastically reduces overall survival rates1,2. As a proto-oncogene, targeted MYCN overexpressio...

Amplification of the locus encoding the oncogenic transcription factor MYCN is a defining feature of high-risk neuroblastoma. Here we present the first dynamic chromatin and transcriptional landscape of MYCN perturbation in neuroblastoma. At oncogenic levels, MYCN associates with E-box binding motif...
