PEPR Cell-ID : "Identités et destins cellulaires" - Appel à projets - 2025
Les cancers pédiatriques représentent la première cause de mortalité liée à une maladie chez les enfants en Europe, responsables de 20 % des décès après la période néonatale. De plus, deux tiers des survivants subissent des effets à long terme des traitements, souvent suffisamment sévères pour altérer la qualité de vie quotidienne et limiter la participation socioéconomique d’au moins la moitié d’entre eux. Au-delà de leur fardeau sanitaire élevé, les cancers pédiatriques du cerveau partagent plusieurs caractéristiques majeures : (i) ils prennent probablement racine dans des erreurs précoces de décisions de destinée cellulaire, se traduisant par des dérèglements de lignage ; (ii) ils apparaissent vraisemblablement durant des fenêtres de développement embryonnaire spécifiques, alors que le système immunitaire est encore immature ; (iii) ils impliquent à la fois des altérations génétiques et épigénétiques ; et (iv) les composants de la chromatine y jouent un rôle central.
