Currently, there are no effective druggable targets and advanced preclinical models of human disease. This thesis investigates the role of MYC, a common TNBC deregulated oncogene, in TNBC microenvironment complexities, with a focus on oncogenic transformation of MYC driven therapeutic resistance as well as the functional consequences of targeting MYC in TNBC. Such understanding potentiates a critical need in the field to identify effective targeted therapy for TNBC and establishes a foundation for translating preclinical findings into effective human clinical trials. 000041627 540__ $$fCC BY 000041627 542__ $$fIn copyright - single owner 000041627 650__ $$aTriple Negative Breast Neoplasms$$040478 000041627 650__ $$aGenes, Tumor Suppressor$$028915 000041627 650__ $$aBreast Neoplasms$$015809 000041627 6531_ $$atnbc 000041627 6531_ $$aparpi 000041627 6531_ $$amyc proteins 000041627 6531_ $$app2a 000041627 691__ $$aSchool of Medicine$$041369 000041627 692__ $$aDepartment of Molecular and Medical Genetics$$041428 000041627 7001_ $$aDoha, Zinab O.M.$$uOregon Health and Science University$$041354 000041627 7201_ $$aSears, Rosalie$$uOregon Health and Science University$$041354$$eAdvisor$$7Personal 000041627 8564_ $$9a241f97e-270e-4167-b8f7-bf7382ef5162$$s16573713$$uhttps://digitalcollections.ohsu.edu/record/41627/files/Doha.Zinab.2023.pdf 000041627 909CO $$ooai:digitalcollections.ohsu.edu:41627$$pstudent-work 000041627 980__ $$aTheses and Dissertations 000041627 981__ $$aPublished$$b2023-09-08
