Asbestos‐associated genome‐wide DNA methylation changes in lung cancer
19 Jul 2017
Abstract excerpt
Previous studies have revealed a robust association between exposure to asbestos and human lung cancer. Accumulating evidence has highlighted the role of epigenome deregulation in the mechanism of carcinogen‐induced malignancies. We examined the impact of asbestos on DNA methylation. Our genome‐wide studies (using Illumina HumanMethylation450K BeadChip) of lung cancer tissue and paired normal lung from 28...
