Acute Myeloid Leukemia is the third most prevalent cancer among the hematological malignancies in the United States, presented with a diverse array of epigenetic abnormalities including chromosomal alterations or recurrent mutations in the epigenetic modifiers.
The Roy Choudhury laboratory investigates the epigenetic regulatory mechanisms at the enhancers and promoters of the critical oncogenes and tumor suppressors that drive malignant proliferation and invasion during leukemogenesis across the molecular subgroups of AML patients. Using the multi-omics platform, we intend to identify the alterations in DNA-methylation, histone covalent modifications and accessibility of the transcription factors to the aberrantly expressed genes in and outside the topologically assorted domains (TAD) of the leukemic blasts. We employ a combination of in vitro and in vivo mouse models to design and target CRISPR or small molecule based perturbation strategies to reverse the dysfunctional epigenetic states and malignant growth.
