Myc, v-myc avian myelocytomatosis viral oncogene homolog: Click to Expand ⟱
Source: TCGA
Type:
Myc is a family of regulator genes and proteins that play a crucial role in cell cycle progression, apoptosis, and cellular transformation.
Myc is often found to be overexpressed or dysregulated in many types of tumors. This overexpression can lead to uncontrolled cell division and growth, contributing to the development and progression of cancer.
Myc is frequently overexpressed in various cancers, including hematological malignancies (like Burkitt lymphoma) and solid tumors (such as breast, lung, and colon cancers). This overexpression can result from genetic alterations, such as chromosomal translocations, amplifications, or mutations.

MYC is use as a clinical biomarker for risk biology-aggressiveness.
