Four distinct subgroups of cerebellar medulloblastomas (MBs) differ in their histopathology, molecular profiles, and prognosis. c-Myc (Myc) or MycN overexpression in granule neuron progenitors (GNPs) induces Group 3 (G3) or Sonic Hedgehog (SHH) MBs, respectively. Differences in Myc and MycN transcriptional profiles depend, in part, on their interaction with Miz1, which binds strongly to Myc but not MycN, to target sites on chromatin. Myc suppresses ciliogenesis and reprograms the transcriptome of SHH-dependent GNPs through Miz1-dependent gene repression to maintain stemness. Genetic disruption of the Myc/Miz1 interaction inhibited G3 MB development. Target genes of Myc/Miz1 are repressed in human G3 MBs but not in other subgroups. Therefore, the Myc/Miz1 interaction is a defining hallmark of G3 MB development.
This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 85. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 07 March 2024.
All research outputs
#624,170
of 33,992,632 outputs
Outputs from Cancer Cell
#418
of 3,753 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#8,523
of 446,969 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Cancer Cell
#5
of 39 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 33,992,632 research outputs across all sources so far. Compared to these this one has done particularly well and is in the 98th percentile: it's in the top 5% of all research outputs ever tracked by Altmetric.
So far Altmetric has tracked 3,753 research outputs from this source. They typically receive a lot more attention than average, with a mean Attention Score of 37.5. This one has done well, scoring higher than 88% of its peers.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 446,969 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one has done particularly well, scoring higher than 98% of its contemporaries.
We're also able to compare this research output to 39 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one has done well, scoring higher than 87% of its contemporaries.
