Abstract
The changes in super-enhancer (SE) landscape of cancers are mainly attributed to cell-intrinsic genomic alterations. Here, the authors perform epigenomic profiling on primary colorectal cancers (CRCs) and their matched normal tissues and show that local tumour microenvironment induces a SE activation and that its target, PDZK1IP1 promotes CRC growth.
