I am fascinated by the diverse molecular mechanisms that have evolved to regulate the information encoded in the genome, which play an essential role in embryonic development and the maintenance of specialized cellular phenotypes. Cancer cells display significant alterations in their epigenome acquiring more plasticity and loosing part of the original identity. Moreover mutations in epigenetic modifiers have also emerged as recurrent events in cancer. However, the extent to which those mutations cooperate with other cancer related mutations and influence cancer development/progression requires further investigation. |
