5-Hydroxymethylcytosine Profiles in Circulating Cell-Free DNA Associate with Disease Burden in Children with Neuroblastoma
18 Dec 2019
Abstract excerpt
PURPOSE: 5-Hydroxymethylcytosine (5-hmC) is an epigenetic marker of open chromatin and active gene expression. We profiled 5-hmC with Nano-hmC-Seal technology using 10 ng of plasma-derived cell-free DNA (cfDNA) in blood samples from patients with neuroblastoma to determine its utility as a biomarker. EXPERIMENTAL DESIGN: = 29) generated from 21 patients (20 high-risk and 1 intermediate-risk). Metastatic burden...
