BAZ2A‐mediated repression via H3K14ac‐marked enhancers promotes prostate cancer stem cells
R Peña‐Hernández, R Aprigliano… - EMBO …, 2021 - embopress.org
Prostate cancer (PCa) is one of the most prevalent cancers in men. Cancer stem cells are
thought to be associated with PCa relapse. Here, we show that BAZ2A is required for PCa …
