Decitabine treatment demethylates vast majority of high-confidence differentially methylated regions in HCT-116 colorectal cancer cells
2020-08-04
Abstract excerpt
<h4>Background: </h4> Gene silencing by CpG island hypermethylation often plays a role in colorectal cancer (CRC) progression. Certain regions of the genome, called high confidence differentially-methylated regions (DMRs), are consistently hypermethylated across numerous patient samples. <h4>Methods: </h4>: In this study, we used bioinformatics and bisulfite PCR sequencing of HCT-116 cells to investigate methylat...
