Promoter Hypermethylation of Hallmark Cancer Genes in Atypical Adenomatous Hyperplasia of the Lung
1 May 2008
Abstract excerpt
PURPOSE: According to current models of tumorigenesis, the progression of phenotypic changes culminating in overtly malignant carcinoma is driven by genetic and epigenetic alterations. The recognition of an early form of glandular neoplasia termed atypical adenomatous hyperplasia (AAH), a precursor lesion from which lung adenocarcinomas arise, provides an opportunity for characterizing early epigenetic...
