c-Myc inactivation of p53 through the pan-cancer lncRNA MILIP drives cancer pathogenesis

c-Myc and p53 operate in a negative feedback manner to maintain cellular homeostasis. Here, the authors report a long noncoding RNA, MILIP as a downstream target of c-Myc and that MILIP represses p53 to support tumorigenicity.
