| Core Tip |
The recent discovery of cancer cell plasticity, i.e. their ability to reprogram into cancer stem cells either naturally or under chemotherapy and/or radiotherapy has changed, once again, the way we consider cancer treatment. In this review, we try to understand why current epigenetic treatments have failed to prove their efficacy in solid tumors including colorectal cancer and we hypothesize that, using correlation tools comparing associations of relevant cancer stem cell markers with chromatin modifier expression, we may identify better candidates for epienzyme targeting. |
