Le maintien des programmes d’expression génique est essentiel pour assurer le bon fonctionnement de l’ensemble des cellules qui composent l’organisme. Les cellules disposent à cette fin de mécanismes de régulation dits “épigénétiques“, basés sur l’ajout de modifications chimiques au niveau des gènes. Il est maintenant évident que ces mécanismes sont profondément perturbés dans la majorité des cancers. Notre équipe investigue les causes et les conséquences des altérations épigénétiques dans les tumeurs.
