Aberrant DNA methylation of p57KIP2 identifies a cell-cycle regulatory pathway with prognostic impact in adult acute lymphocytic leukemia
5 May 2003
Abstract excerpt
P57KIP2 is a cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitor silenced in a variety of human malignancies. DNA methylation of a region surrounding the transcription start site of p57KIP2 was found in acute lymphocytic leukemia (ALL)-derived cell lines. Methylation of this region correlated with gene silencing, and treatment of methylated/silenced cell lines with 5-aza-2'-deoxycytidine resulted in gene re-expression. P57KIP2 was...
