c-MYC-regulated micro RNAs modulate E2F1 expression
TL;DR: In this article, the proto-oncogene c-myc was found to activate expression of a cluster of six miRNAs on human chromosome 13 and showed that miR-17-5p and miR20a are negatively regulated by E2F1.
Journal ArticleDOI
c-Myc-regulated microRNAs modulate E2F1 expression.
TL;DR: A mechanism through which c-Myc simultaneously activates E2F1 transcription and limits its translation, allowing a tightly controlled proliferative signal is revealed.
Journal ArticleDOI
Widespread microRNA repression by Myc contributes to tumorigenesis.

TL;DR: In this paper, the c-Myc oncogenic transcription factor (Myc) is pathologically activated in many human malignancies and the predominant consequence of activation of Myc is widespread repression of miRNA expression.

Widespread microRNA repression by Myc contributes to tumorigenesis
Tsung Cheng Chang,Duonan Yu,Yun-Sil Lee,Erik A. Wentzel,Dan E. Arking,Kristin M. West,Chi V. Dang,Andrei Thomas-Tikhonenko,Joshua T. Mendell +8 more
TL;DR: It is shown here that Myc regulates a much broader set of miRNAs than previously anticipated, and extensive reprogramming of the miRNA transcriptome by Myc contributes to tumorigenesis.

Compositions and methods for modulating angiogenesis
TL;DR: In this article, the authors present compositions and methods that are useful for modulating angiogenesis, and present a set of methods that can be used for angiogenous modulation.
