DNA methylation patterns in bladder cancer and washing cell sediments: a perspective for tumor recurrence detection
14 Aug 2008
Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Epigenetic alterations are a hallmark of human cancer. In this study, we aimed to investigate whether aberrant DNA methylation of cancer-associated genes is related to urinary bladder cancer recurrence. METHODS: A set of 4 genes, including CDH1 (E-cadherin), SFN (stratifin), RARB (retinoic acid receptor, beta) and RASSF1A (Ras association (RalGDS/AF-6) domain family 1), had their methylation patterns...
