Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Carcinogenesis, a complex journey of cellular transformation, unveils its secrets through a multifaceted interplay of genetic and epigenetic factors. Within this intricate landscape, the MYB transcription factor emerges as a central figure, orchestrating an array of molecular processes.
This Special Issue of Cancers seeks to unravel the intricate role of MYB in the carcinogenic narrative. We invite original research articles and comprehensive reviews that illuminate MYB's involvement in diverse facets of carcinogenesis; explore MYB's impact on cellular metabolism, its influence on gene expression networks, and its pivotal role in the dynamic interplay between tumor and stromal microenvironments; and investigate how MYB influences immune responses by both promoting and suppressing, and ultimately shaping the fate of nascent tumors.
In this exploration, we aim to paint a comprehensive portrait of MYB's significance in the carcinogenic landscape. We anticipate that this collection will not only deepen our understanding of MYB's multifaceted role, but will also provide critical insights into the broader mechanisms driving cancer development. I hope this collection will help navigate the intricate intersections of MYB in the ever-evolving story of carcinogenesis.
