Interaction between SNAI2 and MYOD enhances oncogenesis and suppresses differentiation in Fusion Negative Rhabdomyosarcoma

Rhabdomyosarcomas are tumours blocked in myogenic differentiation, which despite the expression of master muscle regulatory factors, including MYOD, are unable to differentiate. Here, the authors show that SNAI2 is upregulated by MYOD through super enhancers, binds to MYOD target enhancers, and arre...
