c-Myc oncoprotein: cell cycle-related events and new therapeutic challenges in cancer and cardiovascular diseases de Nigris F; Sica V; Herrmann J; Condorelli G; Chade AR; Tajana G; Lerman A; Lerman LO; Napoli CCell Cycle 2003[Jul]; 2 (4): 325-8Advanced stages of both cancer and atherosclerosis are characterized by a local increase in tissue mass that may be hard to control. This increase in tissue mass can be attributed to oxidation-sensitive modification of cell cycle-related events, including cellular proliferation, differentiation, and apoptosis, which could be secondary to alteration in the activity of tumor suppressor gene and oncogene products. The oncogene c-Myc has classically been considered to be involved in carcinogenesis and has more recently been implicated in both endothelial dysfunction and atherogenesis as well. Consequently, inhibition of c-Myc-dependent signaling has become a novel therapeutic opportunity and challenge in atherosclerosis and other cardiovascular diseases. Antioxidant strategies, RNA synthesis inhibitors such as mithramycin, and gene therapeutic approaches with antisense oligonucleotides against c-Myc are some of the promising strategies. In general, the increased biologic understanding of the participation of cell cycle events and targeting these events may enable to attenuate or prevent some of the complications of vascular and neoplastic diseases.|*Cell Cycle Proteins[MESH]|*DNA-Binding Proteins[MESH]|Animals[MESH]|Antioxidants/pharmacology[MESH]|Cardiovascular Diseases/*metabolism/physiopathology[MESH]|Cell Cycle[MESH]|Cell Differentiation/physiology[MESH]|Cell Division/physiology[MESH]|Cell Movement/physiology[MESH]|Cell Survival/physiology[MESH]|E2F Transcription Factors[MESH]|Endothelial Cells/cytology/metabolism[MESH]|Flavonoids/pharmacology[MESH]|Genetic Therapy[MESH]|Humans[MESH]|Myocytes, Smooth Muscle/cytology/*metabolism[MESH]|Neoplasms/*metabolism/physiopathology[MESH]|Neovascularization, Pathologic/metabolism/physiopathology[MESH]|Nitric Oxide/metabolism[MESH]|Oxidative Stress/*physiology[MESH]|Paclitaxel/pharmacology[MESH]|Piperidines/pharmacology[MESH]|Proto-Oncogene Proteins c-myc/drug effects/*metabolism[MESH]|Rabbits[MESH]|Sirolimus/pharmacology[MESH]|Transcription Factors/metabolism[MESH] |
