Exploring targets of TET2-mediated methylation reprogramming as potential discriminators of prostate cancer progression
27 Mar 2019
Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Global DNA methylation alterations are hallmarks of cancer. The tumor-suppressive TET enzymes, which are involved in DNA demethylation, are decreased in prostate cancer (PCa); in particular, TET2 is specifically targeted by androgen-dependent mechanisms of repression in PCa and may play a central role in carcinogenesis. Thus, the identification of key genes targeted by TET2 dysregulation may provide...
