Differences in DNA methylation profiles by histologic subtype of paediatric germ cell tumours: a report from the Children’s Oncology Group
1 Oct 2018
Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Abnormal DNA methylation may be important in germ cell tumour (GCT) aetiology, as germ cells undergo complete epigenetic reprogramming during development. GCTs show differences in global and promoter methylation patterns by histologic subtype. We conducted an epigenome-wide study to identify methylation differences by GCT histology. METHODS: Using the Illumina HumanMethylation450K array we measured...
