Cross-Platform Array Screening Identifies COL1A2, THBS1, TNFRSF10D and UCHL1 as Genes Frequently Silenced by Methylation in Melanoma
Epigenetic regulation of tumor suppressor genes (TSGs) has been shown to play a central role in melanomagenesis. By integrating gene expression and methylation array analysis we identified novel candidate genes frequently methylated in melanoma. We validated the methylation status of the most promising genes using highly sensitive Sequenom Epityper assays in a large panel of melanoma cell lines...
متن کاملSilenced in Prostate Cancer Functional Epigenomics Identifies Genes Frequently
In many cases, silencing of gene expression by CpG methylation is causally involved in carcinogenesis. Furthermore, cancer-specific CpG methylation may serve as a tumor marker. In order to identify candidate genes for inactivation by CpG methylation in prostate cancer, the prostate cancer cell lines LNCaP, PC3, and Du-145 were treated with 5-aza-2V deoxycytidine and trichostatin A, which leads ...

متن کاملCMTM5 exhibits tumor suppressor activities and is frequently silenced by methylation in carcinoma cell lines.
PURPOSE CMTM5 (CKLF-like MARVEL transmembrane domain containing member 5) is located at 14q11.2, a locus associated with multiple cancers. It has six RNA splicing variants with CMTM5-v1 as the major one. We explored its expression pattern in normal tissues and tumor cell lines, as well as its functions in carcinoma cells. EXPERIMENTAL DESIGN We evaluated CMTM5 expression by semiquantitative r...
متن کاملSOCS-1, a negative regulator of cytokine signaling, is frequently silenced by methylation in multiple myeloma.
The suppressor of cytokine signaling (SOCS) family of proteins has been implicated in the negative regulation of several cytokine pathways, particularly the receptor-associated tyrosine kinase/signal transducer and activator of transcription (Jak/STAT) pathways of transcriptional activation. SOCS-1 (also known as JAB and SSI-1) inhibits signaling by many cytokines. Because of the previously obs...
