11 Dec 2014
Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: The use of tumour xenografts is a well-established research tool in cancer genomics but has not yet been comprehensively evaluated for cancer epigenomics. METHODS: In this study, we assessed the suitability of patient-derived tumour xenografts (PDXs) for methylome analysis using Infinium 450 K Beadchips and MeDIP-seq. RESULTS: Controlled for confounding host (mouse) sequences, comparison of primary...
