Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: DNA methylation alterations are early events in tumorigenesis and important in the regulation of gene expression in cancer cells. Lung cancer patients have in general a poor prognosis, and a deeper insight into the epigenetic landscape in lung adenocarcinoma tumors and its prognostic implications is needed. RESULTS: We determined whole-genome DNA methylation profiles of 164 fresh frozen lung...
