Frequent hypermethylation of promoter region of <i>RASSF1A</i> in tumor tissues and voided urine of urinary bladder cancer patients
14 Feb 2003
Abstract excerpt
High frequency loss of 3p21.3 region where RASSF1A located was demonstrated in several tumors. We aimed to investigate the methylation status of RASSF1A and the frequency of LOH in 3p21.3 region in bladder cancer. Three bladder cancer cell lines, 40 cases of bladder TCC and 14 cases of paired voided urine samples were subjected to methylation analysis. By methylation specific PCR, complete methylation of promoter...
