Cancer cell type-specific derepression of transposable elements by inhibition of chromatin modifier enzymes

Divyesh Patel, Ville Tiusanen, Konsta Karttunen…·Biswajyoti Sahu

The paper investigates how inhibiting chromatin modifier enzymes in cancer cells leads to cell-type-specific derepression of transposable elements, enhancing immune response through distinct mechanisms.

Transposable elements as tissue-specific enhancers in cancers of endodermal lineage

Konsta Karttunen, Divyesh Patel, Ji‐Han Xia…·Biswajyoti Sahu

The paper identifies tissue-specific transposable element enhancers in colorectal and liver cancers using unbiased reporter assays and shows their association with distinct transcription factors and differentially expressed genes.
