ASCL1 is a MYCN- and LMO1-dependent member of the adrenergic neuroblastoma core regulatory circuitry

Polymorphisms in LMO1 are associated with increased susceptibility to develop neuroblastoma. Here, the authors show that LMO1 directly induces the transcription factor ASCL1, which regulates the differentiation of neurons, demonstrating that ASCL1 is part of the adrenergic neuroblastoma core regulatory circuit.
