متن کاملPromoter hypermethylation of multiple genes in hydatidiform mole and choriocarcinoma.

We investigated the methylation status of the promoter regions of six genes, p16, HIC-1, TIMP3, GSTP1, death-associated protein kinase (DAPK), and E-cadherin in 54 hydatidiform moles, five choriocarcinomas, and 10 first trimester placenta by methylation-specific polymerase cha...
