BMI1 — MYC
Text-mined interactions from Literome
Huang et al., FASEB J 2011
(Neuroblastoma) :
Overexpression of MYCN or
MYC transactivated the
BMI1 promoter and up-regulated BMI1 gene expression ... Our results indicate that MYCN and
MYC regulate
BMI1 gene expression at the transcriptional level and that dysregulation of the BMI1 gene mediated by MYCN or MYC overexpression, confers increased cell proliferation during neuroblastoma genesis and tumor progression
Wang et al., FEBS J 2013
(Carcinoma...) :
Sp1 and
c-Myc regulate transcription of
BMI1 in nasopharyngeal carcinoma ... In addition,
Myc , the known transcription factor for BMI1 in neuroblastomas, also
activated the transcription of
BMI1 through binding to the E-box element ( -181 ) within its promoter, and showed a positive correlation with the mRNA level of BMI1 in NPC ... In conclusion, these findings provide valuable mechanistic insights into the
role of Sp1 and
c-Myc in
BMI1 transcription in NPC, and suggest that targeting of Sp1 or c-Myc may be a potential therapeutic strategy for NPC
