Am I correct in thinking that because ERB (which is downregulated in cancers) downregulates c-myc ( c-myc regulatesthe cell cycle and transcription) and so this is a form of epigenetic modification?

Isn't cAMP (Cyclic AMP) what down regulates c-myc?

Not sure but maybe it plays a role downstream in the signalling cascade. The articles I read mentioned ERB (estrogen receptor beta). They said that it was significantly downregulated in breast cancer. And that there was a strong downregulation of c-myc in the presence of ERB.
