Identification of epigenetically regulated genes that predict patient outcome in neuroblastoma
11 Feb 2011
Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Epigenetic mechanisms such as DNA methylation and histone modifications are important regulators of gene expression and are frequently involved in silencing tumor suppressor genes. METHODS: In order to identify genes that are epigenetically regulated in neuroblastoma tumors, we treated four neuroblastoma cell lines with the demethylating agent 5-Aza-2'-deoxycytidine (5-Aza-dC) either separately or in...
