Novel methylation targets in de novo acute myeloid leukemia with prevalence of chromosome 11 loci
15 May 2001
Abstract excerpt
Aberrant DNA methylation is believed to be important in tumorigenesis by causing either transcriptional inactivation of genes or chromosomal instability. Several laboratories have identified promoter hypermethylation of tumor suppressor genes in acute myeloid leukemia (AML). However, these studies do not provide a global assessment of overall methylation changes and do not allow the identification of novel...
