Detection of Bladder Cancer Using Novel DNA Methylation Biomarkers in Urine Sediments
1 Jul 2011
Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Bladder cancer (BCa) remains a lethal malignancy that can be cured if detected early. DNA hypermethylation is a common epigenetic abnormality in cancer that may serve as a marker of disease activity. METHODS: We selected 10 novel candidate genes from the most frequently hypermethylated genes detected by DNA microarray and bisulfite pyrosequencing of bladder cancers and applied them to detect bladder...
