Epigenetic inactivation of IRX4 is responsible for acceleration of cell growth in human pancreatic cancer
14 Oct 2020
Abstract excerpt
Epigenetic gene silencing by aberrant DNA methylation is one of the important mechanisms leading to loss of key cellular pathways in tumorigenesis. Methyl-CpG-targeted transcriptional activation (MeTA) reactivates hypermethylation-mediated silenced genes in a different way from DNA-demethylating agents. Microarray coupled with MeTA (MeTA-array) identified seven commonly hypermethylation-mediated silenced genes in...
