Gloria Pascual,Alexandra Avgustinova,Stefania Mejetta,Mercè Martín,Andrés Castellanos,Camille Stephan-Otto Attolini,Antoni Berenguer,Neus Prats,Agustí Toll,Juan Antonio Hueto,Coro Bescós,Luciano Di Croce,Luciano Di Croce,Salvador Aznar Benitah +13 more
TL;DR: The results indicate that metastasis-initiating cells particularly rely on dietary lipids to promote metastasis, at least in human melanoma- and breast cancer-derived tumours.
Journal ArticleDOI
Loss of Dnmt3a and Dnmt3b does not affect epidermal homeostasis but promotes squamous transformation through PPAR-γ
Lorenzo Rinaldi,Alexandra Avgustinova,Mercè Martín,Debayan Datta,Guiomar Solanas,Neus Prats,Salvador Aznar Benitah +6 more
TL;DR: It is demonstrated that DnMT3a and Dnmt3b protect the epidermis from tumorigenesis and that squamous carcinomas are sensitive to inhibition of PPAR-γ.
Journal ArticleDOI
Loss of G9a preserves mutation patterns but increases chromatin accessibility, genomic instability and aggressiveness in skin tumours.

TL;DR: It is reported that targeting the H3K9 methyltransferase G9a in skin cancer does not affect single nucleotide variant profiles, but leads to increased tumour aggressiveness after a prolonged latency, and is called for caution when assessing long-term therapeutic benefits of chromatin modifier inhibitors.
