title: C-myc gene expression in heat-adapted and heat-shocked cells.
abstract: The steady-state level of c-myc transcripts increases in cells exposed to high temperatures. Therefore c-myc can be included with c-fos in the family of heat-inducible oncogenes. Activation of c-myc upon heat exposure could in turn account for the induction of heat-shock proteins but recent observations suggest also alternative interpretations.
