n-MYC, n-MYC Oncogene: Click to Expand ⟱

Type: Oncogene
The MYC proto-oncogenes are among the most commonly activated proteins in human cancer. N-myc is primarily implicated in high-grade neuroendocrine tumors (neuroblastoma and small-cell carcinomas) and those arising from the neural system (neuroblastoma, medulloblastoma, and glioblastoma).

It is a potent developmental regulator that controls proliferation, metabolism, ribosome biogenesis, and cell-cycle progression during embryogenesis—especially in neural crest–derived tissues.

Overexpression is generally associated with a more aggressive clinical course and lower survival rates.

MCP1↓,
COX2↓,
PGE2↓, BBRs can also effect prostaglandin E2 (PGE2)
MMP2↓, and decrease the expression of key genes involved in metastasis including: MMP2 and MMP9.
MMP9↓,
DNAdam↑, BBR induces double strand DNA breaks and has similar effects as ionizing radiation
eff↝, In some cell types, this response has been reported to be TP53-dependent
Telomerase↓, This positively-charged nitrogen may result in the strong complex formations between BBR and nucleic acids and induce telomerase inhibition and topoisomerase poisoning
Bcl-2↓, BBR have been shown to suppress BCL-2 and expression of other genes by interacting with the TATA-binding protein and the TATA-box in certain gene promoter regions
AMPK↑, BBR has been shown in some studies to localize to the mitochondria and inhibit the electron transport chain and activate AMPK.

Dose↓, The effects of low doses of BBR (300 nM) on MIA-PaCa-2 cells were determined to be dependent on AMPK as knockdown of the alpha1 and alpha2 catalytic subunits of AMPK prevented the inhibitory effects of BBR on mTORC1 and ERK activities and DNA synthes
Dose↑, In contrast, higher doses of BBR inhibited mTORC1 and ERK activities and DNA synthesis by AMPK-independent mechanisms [223,224].

CXCR4↓, BBR has been observed to inhibit the expression of the chemokine receptors (CXCR4 and CCR7) at the mRNA level in esophageal cancer cells.
CCR7↓,
uPA↓, BBR has also been shown to induce plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 (PAI-1) and suppress uPA in HCC cells which suppressed their invasiveness and motility.
CSCs↓, BBR has been shown to inhibit stemness, EMT and induce neuronal differentiation in neuroblastoma cells. BBR inhibited the expression of many genes associated with neuronal differentiation
EMT↓,
Diff↓,
