Global DNA methylation and hydroxymethylation differ in hepatocellular carcinoma and cholangiocarcinoma and relate to survival rate
2 Apr 2015
Abstract excerpt
UNLABELLED: In addition to DNA methylation, hydroxymethylation of DNA is recognized as a novel epigenetic mark. Primary liver cancers, i.e., hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) and cholangiocarcinoma (CC), are highly prevalent but epigenetically poorly characterized, so far. In the present study we measured global methylcytosine (mCyt) and hydroxymethylcytosine (hmCyt) in HCC and CC tissues and in peripheral blood...
