The OSU-IU Center for Cancer Systems Biology (CCSB, formerly designated as OSU-IU ICBP) has assembled a team of 25 computational and bench scientists to study epigenetic control of critical signaling networks in prostate, breast, and ovarian cancers. Based on our recent progress and preliminary findings, we will test the hypothesis that epigenetic deregulation of androgen receptor (AR), estrogen receptor a (ERa), or TGF-ß/SMAD4 signaling-mediated transcriptional networks underlies the transition of a hormone-/chemo-sensitive phenotype to a hormone-/chemo-insensitive phenotype in cancer. We anticipate that the study will yield significant insight into the role of permissive and non-permissive chromatin in cancer and drug-resistant disease. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________
