19 May 2013
Abstract excerpt
Bladder cancer like other cancers arises from the accumulation of many genetic and epigenetic changes that lead to the activation of proto-oncogenes or inactivation of tumor suppressor genes. We aimed to investigate the methylation patterns of Twist homolog 1 (TWIST1) and nidogen-2 (NID2) genes in bladder cancer.
