Cell Cycle & Cancer

Team Manager: Besson Arnaud

Presentation

Current projects in our team are:

1. Decipher the roles of the CDK inhibitor p27Kip1 in the regulation of cell metabolism and autophagy.

2. Investigate the role of p57Kip2 in the control of intestinal stem cell fate and proliferation and design novel in vitro models by high resolution 3D printing to reproduce the intestinal epithelium.

3. Investigate the mechanisms regulating the mitotic kinase Citron Kinase and determine its potential as a therapeutic target in glioblastoma.
