Monoallelic expression of the insulin-like growth factor-2 gene in ovarian cancer.

The American journal of pathology - 1 Apr 1996

Yun K, Fukumoto M, Jinno Y

Abstract excerpt

Genomic imprinting is defined as a gamete-specific modification causing differential expression of the two alleles of a gene in somatic cells and is becoming increasingly recognized as playing an important role in a number of human diseases including cancer. We have reported that the loss of the insulin-like growth factor-2 (IGF2) gene imprinting results in the deregulation of both IGF2 alleles, which may...
