Methylation of SLFN11 promotes gastric cancer growth and increases gastric cancer cell resistance to cisplatin
1 Jan 2019
Abstract excerpt
Background and Aim: Human SLFN11 gene encodes a protein with structural similarity to RNA helicases, which was reported to sensitize cancer cells to DNA-damaging agents. This study explored the epigenetic regulation and mechanism of SLFN11 in human gastric cancer. Methods: Eight human gastric cancer cell lines and 201 cases of primary gastric cancer were analyzed. Methylation specific PCR, flow cytometry,...
