Association between MGMT Promoter Methylation and Risk of Breast and Gynecologic Cancers: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis.

Scientific reports - 6 Oct 2017

Chen Ru, Zheng Yonglan, Zhuo Lin, Wang Shengfeng

Abstract excerpt

The role of the promoter methylation of O 6-methylguanine-DNA methyltransferase (MGMT) remains controversial for breast and gynecologic cancers. We conducted a meta-analysis to assess the association between hypermethylation of MGMT promoter and the risk of breast and gynecologic cancers. A comprehensive search was conducted in PubMed and Embase electronic databases up to 19th August 2017 for studies about the...
