Abstract excerpt
Epigenetic control of gene expression plays a major influence in the development and progression of many cancer types. Aim of the present study was to investigate the expression of epigenetic regulators in a large cohort of medullary thyroid carcinomas (MTC), correlating the data with the clinical outcome and mutational status of the patients. Taqman Low Density Arrays (TLDAs) were used to analyze expression...
