Abstract

Much of our understanding of the biology of MYCN amplification in neuroblastoma is based on the exploration of transcriptional activity of MYCN. Powers and colleagues, in a paper in Nature, now show that MYCN RNA also has an important role in neuroblastoma in addition to MYCN protein production. Their findings place the Let-7 microRNA family front and centre in neuroblastoma biology.
