Metastasis is the main cause of mortality due to cancer; therefore, it is crucial to improve our understanding of the regulation of genes controlling the metastatic process in order to develop more effective therapies. Metastasis formation is a multi-step process resulting from genetic and epigenetic alterations in key regulatory molecules. Epigenetic regulatory mechanisms are attractive therapeutic targets as they are potentially reversible. This work focuses on the epigenetic regulation of two metastasis genes, MMP-9 and TIMP-2, in a reversible bovine cancer model induced by Theileria...
