La création du laboratoire international a pour but la poursuite et le développement de la collaboration dans les domaines scientifique, de formation par la recherche et de transfert technologique dans les deux sens que nous avons établi depuis 2003 sur les facteurs pronostiques et l’efficacité de la réponse thérapeutique dans les lymphomes humains. Grace à deux PRA successifs, nous avons harmonisé le recueil, la gestion et l’analyse des prélèvements tissulaires, et, à l’occasion de trois thèses en cotutelle, transféré la microdissection laser et les microméthodes moléculaires, ainsi qu’un logiciel pour les bases de données. Nous pouvons maintenant étudier en commun les relations entre marqueurs cellulaires et moléculaires d’apoptose et facteurs cliniques. La comparaison de deux grandes séries de lymphomes dans des populations différentes, avec des facteurs génétiques, épigénétiques et dans un environnement différent, nous permettra d’apprécier une éventuelle hétérogénéité dans la fréquence des différents types de lymphomes, et dans les aspects microscopiques et/ou moléculaires. S’il existe des différences, nous en approfondirons l’étude. Si ces facteurs sont similaires sur les deux sites, nous pourrons faire une étude conjointe de grande envergure et envisager des essais thérapeutiques prospectifs.
