PBX1 Is a Favorable Prognostic Biomarker as It Modulates 13- <i>cis</i> Retinoic Acid–Mediated Differentiation in Neuroblastoma
20 Jun 2014
Abstract excerpt
PURPOSE: Neuroblastoma is an embryonic childhood cancer with high mortality. 13-cis retinoic acid (13-cisRA) improves survival for some patients, but many recur, suggesting clinical resistance. The mechanism of resistance and the normal differentiation pathway are poorly understood. Three-amino-acid loop extension (TALE) family genes are master regulators of differentiation. Because retinoids promote...
