26 Feb 2021
Abstract excerpt
Background: Epidemics of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) and cervical cancer are interconnected. DNA hypermethylation of host genes' promoter in cervical lesions has also been recognized as a contributor to cervical cancer progression. Methods: For this purpose we analyzed promoter methylation of four tumor suppressor genes (RARB, CADM1, DAPK1 and PAX1) and explored their possible association with cervical...
