Aberrant paracrine signalling for bone remodelling underlies the mutant histone-driven giant cell tumour of bone
3 Aug 2022
Abstract excerpt
Abstract Oncohistones represent compelling evidence for a causative role of epigenetic perturbations in cancer. Giant cell tumours of bone (GCTs) are characterised by a mutated histone H3.3 as the sole genetic driver present in bone-forming osteoprogenitor cells but absent from abnormally large bone-resorbing osteoclasts which represent the hallmark of these neoplasms. While these striking features imply a...
