Gastrokine 1 Expression in the Human Gastric Mucosa Is Closely Associated with the Degree of Gastritis and DNA Methylation
1 Jan 2013
Abstract excerpt
PURPOSE: Gastrokine 1 plays an important role in gastric mucosal defense. Additionally, the Gastrokine 1-miR-185-DNMT1 axis has been shown to suppress gastric carcinogenesis through regulation of epigenetic alteration. Here, we investigated the effects of Gastrokine 1 on DNA methylation and gastritis. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Expression of Gastrokine 1, DNMT1, EZH2, and c-Myc proteins, and the presence of...
