Breast cancer epigenetics: comprehensive investigation of genes and chemical compounds involved in active DNA demethylation
2023-04-12
Abstract excerpt
<h4>Background: </h4> The experimental evidence has demonstrated that active DNA demethylation process, which involves TET proteins, can affect DNA methylation pattern. TET dependent demethylation residues in DNA hypomethylation by oxidation 5-methylcytosine (5-mC) to 5-hydroxymethylcytosine (5-hmC) and its derivatives. TETs’ activity may be upregulated by ascorbate. Given that aberrant DNA methylation of crucial...
