Selective Enhancer Dependencies in MYC-Intact and MYC-Rearranged Germinal Center B-cell Diffuse Large B-cell Lymphoma.

Abstract

Aberrant MYC activity defines the most aggressive GCB-DLBCLs.

We characterized a mechanism of MYC transcriptional activation via a native enhancer that is active in MYC-intact GCB-DLBCL, establishing fitness-sustaining cis- and trans-regulatory circuitry in GCB-DLBCL models that lack MYC enhancer-hijacking rearrangement.
