Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: The occurrence and progression of cancer are the results of the dysregulation of genetics and epigenetics. Epigenetic regulation can reversibly affect gene transcription activity without changing DNA structure. Covalent modification of histones is crucial in the epigenetic regulation of gene expression. Furthermore, epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) significantly affects cell tumorigenesis,...
