  • Beschreibung: <jats:title>Abstract</jats:title> <jats:p>C/EBPα gene expression is frequently lost in non-small cell lung cancer, suggesting it acts as a tumor suppressor. Here, we generated an inducible lung-specific mouse model of C/EBPα deletion (C/EBPαLung-Δ mice) that develops lung adenocarcinomas. We observed that C/EBPα excision results in upregulation of Bmi-1, and that tumor initiation strictly depends on Bmi-1 gene dosage, as C/EBPαLung-Δ mice carrying only one functional Bmi-1 allele escape tumorigenesis. Accordingly, C/EBPα negative human adenocarcinomas show elevated Bmi-1 expression, in line with our observation that C/EBPα acts as tumor suppressor in lung cells by directly inhibiting Bmi-1 transcription. Furthermore, pharmacological inhibition of Bmi-1 impairs the ability of C/EBPα null adenocarcinoma cells to form tumors in xenografts. Overall, we have identified Bmi-1 as a critical therapeutic target in those patients carrying abnormal C/EBPα function.</jats:p> <jats:p>Citation Format: Elena Levantini, Daniela S.
