Identification of a DNA Methylome Profile of Esophageal Squamous Cell Carcinoma and Potential Plasma Epigenetic Biomarkers for Early Diagnosis
22 Jul 2014
Abstract excerpt
DNA methylation is a critical epigenetic mechanism involved in key cellular processes. Its deregulation has been linked to many human cancers including esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC). This study was designed to explore the whole methylation status of ESCC and to identify potential plasma biomarkers for early diagnosis. We used Infinium Methylation 450k array to analyze ESCC tissues (n = 4), paired...
