Analysis of DNA Methylation in Plasma for Monitoring Hepatocarcinogenesis
29 Apr 2015
Abstract excerpt
AIM: To explore whether the aberrant DNA methylation status in plasma could be used as a biomarker for hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) screening among high-risk individuals. METHODS: The promoter methylation status of ELF, RASSF1A, p16, and GSTP1 was investigated by methylation-specific polymerase chain reaction (PCR) in 34 paired HCC and nontumor liver tissue from HCC patients and 10 tissues from patients with...
