BMI1 is a known oncogenic transcriptional repressor in glioblastoma stem-like cells, but its downstream mediators are poorly understood. Recently, in Cancer Cell, Gargiulo et al. (2013) designed a rational in vivo RNAi screen based on BMI1 ChIP-seq from neural progenitors and identified functional tumor suppressor targets, including Atf3 and Cbx7.
BMI1 是神经胶质瘤干细胞中一种已知的致癌转录抑制因子,但它的下游介质知之甚少。最近,在 Cancer Cell 杂志上,Gargiulo 等人(2013 年)基于神经祖细胞中的 BMI1 ChIP-seq 设计了一个合理的体内 RNAi 筛选,并鉴定了包括 Atf3 和 Cbx7 在内的功能性肿瘤抑制靶点。
