Prognostic significance of LKB1 promoter methylation in cutaneous malignant melanoma
Liver kinase B1 (LKB1) loss is a common occurrence in various types of human cancer, and promoter methylation has been hypothesized to be a major mechanism of LKB1 inactivation. The association between LKB1 gene promoter methylation status and tumor progression in cutaneous malignant melanoma (CMM) remains unknown. In the present study, the methylation status of the LKB1 promoter region was exa...
متن کاملStudy of the role of siRNA mediated promoter methylation in DNMT3B knockdown and alteration of promoter methylation of CDH1, GSTP1 genes in MDA-MB -453 cell line
Promoter methylation is one of the main epigenetic mechanisms that lead to the inactivation of tumor suppressor genes during carcinogenesis. Due to the reversible nature of DNA methylation, many studies have been performed to correct theses epigenetic defects by inhibiting DNA methyltransferases (DNMTs). In this case novel therapeutics especially siRNA oligonucleotides have been used to specifi...
متن کاملPromoter methylation status of multiple genes in uveal melanoma.
PURPOSE Aberrant promoter hypermethylation of CpG islands is thought to play an important role in the inactivation of tumor-suppressor genes (TSGs) in cancer. Studies of cutaneous melanoma have reported a high methylation rate for MGMT, DAPK, RAR-b2, and RASSF1A. In colon cancer, SOCS-1, IGF-2, RUNX3, NEUROG1, and CACNA1G are commonly inactivated. The concomitant methylation of at least three o...
متن کاملMethylation Status of SMG1 Gene Promoter in Multiple Myeloma
Background: Epigenetic modifications, such as methylation can occur in multiple myeloma. SMG1is an important gene involved in cell growth which defect in methylation of its promoter leads to reduction of cell apoptosis and uncontrolled proliferation. In this study, we identified the methylation status of the SMG1 gene promoter in patients with multiple myeloma. Methods: Methylation status of S...
