NFKB1 and glioblastoma: While epigenetic mechanisms play a central role in driving this plasticity, the key regulators remain poorly understood, and developing effective therapeutic strategies targeting them has been challenging.<h4>Methods</h4>We investigated the role of BRD2, a key regulator of NF-κB-mediated mesenchymal (MES) transition, using GBM patient-derived xenograft cell lines, CRISPR-mediated knock-in/knockout approaches, RNA-seq, and in vitro and in vivo modeling.
