Epigenetic silencing of LPP/miR-28 in multiple myeloma
3 Aug 2017
Abstract excerpt
AIMS: miR-28-5- is a tumour suppressor microRNA implicated in cancers. As a CpG island is absent in miR-28-5- but present in its host gene, LPP (LIM domain containing preferred translocation partner in lipoma), we hypothesized that miR-28-5p is epigenetically silenced by promoter DNA methylation of its host gene in multiple myeloma. METHODS: Methylation-specific PCR, verified by quantitative bisulfite...
