Epigenetics is the study of the change in gene expression patterns that are not caused by direct alterations in the DNA nucleotide sequence but instead are as a result of the dynamic remodelling of the chromatin state. Regulation of the chromatin lan...

Breast cancer is the uncontrolled proliferation of breast cells and is one of the most common cancers in the UK. It is a complex disease that can be divided into different subtypes based upon the presence or lack of hormone receptors, namely the oest...

Chromobox 2 (CBX2) is a chromatin-binding component of polycomb repressive complex 1, which causes gene silencing. CBX2 expression is elevated in triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC), for which there are few therapeutic options. Here, we aimed to inv...

Glioblastoma (GBM) is a deadly disease with poor prognosis. The gold standard treatment is surgery followed by chemoradiotherapy almost always including Temozolomide. Despite extensive research for new therapeutic approaches relapse after treatment s...
