Promoter hypermethylation profile of ovarian epithelial neoplasms.
PURPOSE Ovarian carcinomas are believed to arise de novo from surface epithelium, but the actual molecular pathogenesis is unknown. The aim of this study was to compare the promoter hypermethylation profiles of ovarian epithelial neoplasms to better understand the role of epigenetic silencing in carcinogenesis. EXPERIMENTAL DESIGN We analyzed the DNA promoter methylation status of eight tumor...
متن کاملPromoter Hypermethylation Profile of Kidney Cancer
Purpose: Promoter hypermethylation is an important mechanism of inactivation of tumor suppressor genes in cancer cells. Kidney tumors are heterogeneous in their histology, genetics, and clinical behavior. To gain insight into the role of epigenetic silencing of tumor suppressor and cancer genes in kidney tumorigenesis, we determined a hypermethylation profile of kidney cancer. Experimental Desi...

متن کاملTGFBI promoter hypermethylation correlating with paclitaxel chemoresistance in ovarian cancer
The purpose of this study is to determine the methylation status of Transforming growth factor-beta-inducible gene-h3 (TGFBI) and its correlation with paclitaxel chemoresistance in ovarian cancer. The methylation status of TGFBI was examined in ovarian cancer and control groups by methylation-specific PCR (MSP) and bisulfite sequencing PCR (BSP). The TGFBI expression and cell viability were com...
متن کاملp53 and Ki-ras gene mutations in epithelial ovarian neoplasms.
In an effort to define the pathogenic relationship between ovarian neoplasms spanning the clinicopathological spectrum from benign to malignant, the incidence of Ki-ras and p53 mutations was determined in 20 ovarian cystadenomas, 20 low malignant potential (LMP) tumors of the ovary, and 23 ovarian carcinomas. Using DNA extracted from paraffin embedded tissue, polymerase chain reaction amplifica...
