Team 11 : reMoVE-B
Molecular Vulnerabilities of Tumor Escape in mature B-cell Malignancies
Team leaders : Catherine Pellat and David Chiron
Research projects
We work on identifying vulnerabilities – Achille’s heel – that are consequent to the adaptation of cancer cells to survival and resistance within their ecosystem. More precisely, we focus on major molecular pathways involved in resistance/escape of cancer cells to death, such as p53 pathway and BCL2 network. We develop original culture models (ex vivo coculture models, PDX) and cutting-edge technologies (Multispectral IHC, multiparameter flow cytometry, scRNASeq). Our research models are mature B-cell malignancies such as Multiple Myeloma and Mantle Cell Lymphoma.
