SNRPN methylation patterns in germ cell tumors as a reflection of primordial germ cell development
10 Oct 2001
Abstract excerpt
Studies examining altered imprinted gene expression in cancer compare the observed expression pattern to the normal expression pattern for a given tissue of origin, usually the somatic expression pattern for the imprinted gene. Germ cell tumors (GCTs), however, require a developmental stage-dependent comparison. To explore using methylation as an indicator of germ cell development, we determined the pattern of...
