Identification and Validation of Colorectal Neoplasia–Specific Methylation Markers for Accurate Classification of Disease
1 Feb 2007
Abstract excerpt
Aberrant DNA methylation occurs early in oncogenesis, is stable, and can be assayed in tissues and body fluids. Therefore, genes with aberrant methylation can provide clues for understanding tumor pathways and are attractive candidates for detection of early neoplastic events. Identification of sequences that optimally discriminate cancer from other diseased and healthy tissues is needed to advance both...
