Super enhancers define regulatory subtypes and cell identity in neuroblastoma
Half of the children diagnosed with neuroblastoma (NB) have high-risk disease, disproportionately contributing to overall childhood cancer-related deaths. In addition to recurrent gene mutations, there is increasing evidence supporting the role of epigenetic deregulation in disease pathogenesis. Yet...

| Summary: | Half of the children diagnosed with neuroblastoma (NB) have high-risk disease, disproportionately contributing to overall childhood cancer-related deaths. In addition to recurrent gene mutations, there is increasing evidence supporting the role of epigenetic deregulation in disease pathogenesis. Yet, comprehensive cis-regulatory network descriptions from NB are lacking. Here, using genome-wide H3K27ac profiles across 60 NBs, covering the different clinical and molecular subtypes, we identified four major super-enhancer-driven epigenetic subtypes and their underlying master regulatory networks. |
