Abstract excerpt
CONTEXT: Aberrant DNA methylation is known to be a major factor in oncogenesis and cancer progression, but effects of methylation in papillary thyroid cancer (PTC) are not well defined. OBJECTIVE: The objective of the study was to identify altered methylation patterns, which may be associated with PTC disease behavior. DESIGN: This study was a genome-wide methylation analysis of PTC. SETTING: The study was...
