Relevance of MSP assay for the detection of MGMT promoter hypermethylation in glioblastomas
1 Jan 1992
Abstract excerpt
O6-Methylguanine-DNA methyltransferase (MGMT) promoter hypermethylation has recently emerged as a powerful determinant of chemotherapy sensitivity in glioblastomas. To adapt such an important epigenetic biomarker to routine application in the clinical setting, we validated the conventionally used methylation-specific polymerase chain reaction (MSP) assay for its relevance in the determination of MGMT methylation...
