Elevated mRNA levels of DNA methyltransferase‐1 as an independent prognostic factor in primary nonsmall cell lung cancer
3 Aug 2006
Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Despite many reports about the involvement of DNA methyltransferases (DNMTs) in human cancers, including nonsmall cell lung cancer (NSCLC), the clinicopathologic significance of DNMTs in primary NSCLC remains to be elucidated. METHODS: The relation between the mRNA levels of DNMTs (1 and 3b) and the promoter methylation of the p16, RARbeta2, H-cadherin, GSTP1, RIZ, and FHIT genes and the...
