Genome‐wide promoter methylation analysis identifies epigenetic silencing of <scp><i>MAPK</i></scp><i>13</i> in primary cutaneous melanoma
28 Mar 2013
Abstract excerpt
The involvement of epigenetic alterations in the pathogenesis of melanoma is increasingly recognized. Here, we performed genome-wide DNA methylation analysis of primary cutaneous melanoma and benign melanocytic nevus interrogating 14 495 genes using BeadChip technology. This genome-wide view of promoter methylation in primary cutaneous melanoma revealed an array of recurrent DNA methylation alterations with...
