Oncotarget published this editorial perspective on March 11, 2023 in Volume 14, entitled, “C/EBPβ cooperates with MYB to maintain the oncogenic program of AML cells” by Karl-Heinz Klempnauer from the Institute for Biochemistry, Westfälische-Wilhelms-Universität, Muenster D-48149, Germany. DOI - https://doi.org/10.18632/oncotarget.28377 Correspondence to - Karl-Heinz Klempnauer - klempna@uni-muenster.de Abstract Studies on the role of transcription factor MYB in acute myeloid leukemia (AML) have identified MYB as a key regulator of a transcriptional program for self-renewal of AML cells. Recent work summarized here has now highlighted the CCAAT-box/ enhancer binding protein beta (C/EBPβ) as an essential factor and potential therapeutic target that cooperates with MYB and coactivator p300 in the maintenance of the leukemic cells.
