# Patrizia Paterlini-Bréchot

Patrizia Paterlini-Bréchot, born in the Italian city of Reggio Emilia, is an Italian scientist and a professor of cell biology and oncology working at the Faculté de Médecine Necker-Enfants Malades, Université Paris Descartes and at INSERM in Paris.

## Education

Patrizia Paterlini-Bréchot studied medicine at the University of Modena and Reggio Emilia, Italy. In 1978, she defended a thesis on Hodgkin's Lymphoma, which was awarded the title of « Best medical thesis » of the year 1978. She pursued her training and validated a double specialization in Hematology (1981), awarded the prize of « Best research in Hematology » of the year 1979, and in Oncology (1984). Patrizia Paterlini-Bréchot obtained a permanent academic position in the University of L'Aquila (1981), then Bologna (1984) working in the departments of Hematology, Gastroenterology and Oncology. In 1988 she moved to Paris (France) for a training in molecular biology in professor Christian Bréchot's laboratory. In 1993, she defended her PhD thesis, Fundamental bases of oncogenesis at University of Paris XI. She quit her academic position in the University of Bologna in 1993 and in 1994 she obtained an equivalent position in Paris Descartes University in Paris.

## Research

In 1994, she demonstrated the clinical impact of a new marker of cell proliferation, cyclin A, discovered in the same laboratory. In 1995, she was awarded the Prize of Scientific excellence Assistance Publique – Hôpitaux de Paris. Her work in Christian Brechot's team demonstrated the pro-carcinogenic impact of hepatitis B Virus (HBV) genome integration into cellular DNA both in patients having serological markers of HBV infection and in patients lacking serological markers but having persistence of the HBV DNA in their liver. The work of her team thus demonstrated a mechanism involved in the direct tumorigenic effect of this virus. In 2004 she was appointed full professor of cell biology in the same university. With her team, she published studies showing the primary role of calcium signalling deregulation in HBV and Hepatitis C virus (HCV) – related liver oncogenesis and in pathologies related to ER stress. From 2002 to 2006 she served as interim Director of INSERM Unit 370, previously directed by professor Christian Bréchot. In 2006, she was appointed Director of INSERM Unit 807. In addition to fundamental research studies, her activity has been focused to clinically applied research, targeting the domains of predictive oncology and non-invasive prenatal diagnosis.

### The ISET technique

The work of Patrizia Paterlini-Bréchot led to the discovery of the ISET test permitting the isolation and characterization of both circulating tumor and fetal cells. This discovery led Patrizia Paterlini-Bréchot to found her own company named Rarecells Diagnostics to develop the ISET technique.
