Frequent Hypermethylation of RASSF1A, TSLC1, High Viral Load of Epstein-Barr Virus DNA in Nasopharyngeal Carcinoma, Matched Tumor-Adjacent Tissues
1 Sept 2005
Abstract excerpt
We examined the promoter hypermethylation of tumor-suppressor genes RASSF1A and TSLC1, quantitated EBV DNA load in nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) tissues (T tissues), and matched tumor-adjacent tissues outside 0.5 cm (P tissues) and outside 1.0 cm (Z tissues) to evaluate the role of promoter hypermethylation of RASSF1A and TSLC1 as well as viral load in the pathogenesis of NPC. Methylation-specific polymerase...
