Abstract excerpt
The proto-oncogene c-myb is essential for a controlled balance between cell growth and differentiation. Aberrant c-Myb activity has been reported for numerous human cancers, and enforced c-Myb transcription can transform cells of lymphoid origin by stimulating cellular proliferation and inhibiting apoptotic pathways. Here we demonstrate that activation of the NF-kappaB pathway by the HTLV-1 Tax protein leads to...
