CRISPR-Cas9 induced formation of Myc-containing ecDNA drives carcinogenesis in mouse liver and cancer phenotypes in human cell models
2026-03-31
Abstract excerpt
<title>Abstract</title> <p>Over 40% of human cancers harbor extrachromosomal DNA (ecDNA), which correlates with therapy resistance and poor prognosis. Yet research is limited by a lack of robust de novo ecDNA models. We present a CRISPR-Cas9 based approach for generation of ecDNA in cell lines and mouse liver. In HEK293 cells, CRISPR-induced MYC-bearing ecDNA ([MYCcircle]) promoted cancer hallmarks, including enh...
