10 Apr 2014
Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: One challenge in prostate cancer is distinguishing indolent from aggressive disease at diagnosis. DNA promoter hypermethylation is a frequent epigenetic event in prostate cancer, but few studies of DNA methylation in relation to features of more aggressive tumors or prostate cancer recurrence have been completed. METHODS: We used the Infinium HumanMethylation450 BeadChip to assess DNA methylation in...
