Abstract excerpt
This study was designed to identify epigenetically regulated genes and to clarify the contribution of epige-netic alteration to acquired resistance to epidermal growth factor receptor‑tyrosine kinase inhibitors (EGFR‑TKIs). We established a gefitinib‑resistant lung cancer cell line, PC9, which was originally gefitinib‑sensitive, by serial long‑term exposure to gefitinib. RNA and DNA were collected from both...
