Association of low p16INK4a and p15INK4b mRNAs expression with their CpG islands methylation with human hepatocellular carcinogenesis
1 Jan 2004
Abstract excerpt
AIM: To study the significance of p16 and p15 transcription suppression with hypermethylation of their genes' 5'CpG islands during human hepatocellular carcinogenesis. METHODS: The mRNA expression levels of p16 and p15 genes were evaluated in cancerous, para-cancerous and non-cancerous tissues of 20 HCC, 3 normal liver tissues from 3 accidentally died healthy adults using semi-quantitatively Northern blot. The...
