Aberrant Promoter Methylation of the <i>ABCG2</i> Gene in Renal Carcinoma
1 Nov 2006
Abstract excerpt
ABCG2 is a ubiquitous ATP-binding cassette transmembrane protein that is important in clinical drug resistance. Little is known about the mechanism(s) regulating the expression of ABCG2. We hypothesized that DNA methylation could play a role in the epigenetic regulation of ABCG2 gene expression. The promoter methylation status of three renal carcinoma cell lines was assessed with restriction enzyme...
