Methods for identifying and using inhibitors of casein kinase 1 epsilon isoform for inhibiting the growth and/or proliferation of MYC-driven tumor cells
In one aspect, the invention provides a method for inhibiting the growth and/or proliferation of a myc-driven tumor cell comprising the step of contacting the tumor cells with a CSNK1ε inhibitor. In another aspect, the invention provides a method of treating a subject suffering from a tumor comprising myc-driven tumor cells, comprising administering to the subject an amount of a composition comprising a CSNK1ε inhibitor effective to inhibit the growth and/or proliferation of the tumor cells.
