Overexpression of SPARC protein contrasts with its transcriptional silencing by aberrant hypermethylation of SPARC CpG-rich region in endometrial carcinoma
1 Jun 2007
Abstract excerpt
Secreted protein acidic and rich in cysteine (SPARC) is a secreted matricellular glycoprotein involved in crucial processes that occur during cancer. This study explored the occurrence of deregulated expression of SPARC in endometrial carcinomas, since it has been associated with the progression of other tumor types. We analyzed the expression of SPARC in endometrial carcinomas by TaqMan, Western blotting and...
