Hypermethylation of <i>GSTP1</i>, <i>CD44</i>, and E‐cadherin genes in prostate cancer among US Blacks and Whites

4 Apr 2003

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: In the US, the incidence and mortality of prostate cancer is about twofold higher among US Blacks compared to Whites, suggesting racial differences in prostate tumor occurrence and aggressiveness. The reason for these racial differences is unknown. Epigenetic events such as promoter-region gene hypermethylation may be influenced by environmental exposures and have been implicated in prostate...
