Methylation‐Specific Sequencing of GSTP1 Gene Promoter in Circulating/Extracellular DNA from Blood and Urine of Healthy Donors and Prostate Cancer Patients
1 Aug 2008
Abstract excerpt
Hypermethylated promoters of cancer-related genes represent convenient targets for early cancer diagnosis and monitoring based on circulating/extracellular DNA (cir/exDNA) from human blood and urine. The frequency of detection of methylated tumor suppressor genes in plasma or urine samples is usually lower than in the samples of tumor tissue because of a low concentration of target DNA and potential polymorphism...
