Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: DNA methylation is associated with aberrant gene expression in cancer, and has been shown to correlate with therapeutic response and disease prognosis in some types of cancer. We sought to investigate the biological significance of DNA methylation in lung cancer. RESULTS: We integrated the gene expression profiles and data of gene promoter methylation for a large panel of non-small cell lung cancer...
