BACKGROUND The BRAF(V600E) mutation leading to constitutive signaling of MEK-ERK pathways causes papillary thyroid cancer (PTC). Ras association domain family 1A (RASSF1A), which is an important regulator of MST1 tumor suppressor pathways, is inactivated by hypermethylation of its promoter region in 20 to 32% of PTC. However, in PTC without RASSF1A methylation, the regulatory mechanisms of RASS...
Epigenetic inactivation of the candidate tumor suppressor gene RASSF1A is a frequent and critical event in the pathogenesis of many human cancers. The RASSF1A protein contains a Ras association domain, suggesting a role in Ras-like signaling pathways, and has also been implicated in cell cycle progression. However, the preliminary data suggests that the RASSF1A gene product is likely to have mu...
Methylation rates of the Ras association domain family 1A gene (RASSF1A) have been variously reported as between 7.5 and 66.7% in gastric carcinoma tissues. The role of this gene in gastric cancer also remains to be fully elucidated. The present study aimed to investigate whether promoter hypermethylation of RASSF1A occurs in gastric adenocarcinoma tissues and gastric cancer cell lines, and to ...
BACKGROUND The functional and prognostic significance of Ras association domain family 1A gene (RASSF1A) on hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) has not been well characterized. OBJECTIVES This study aimed to investigate the association between Ala133Ser polymorphism or promoter methylation in RASSF1A and the prognosis of HCC in Nantong City, one of the areas with the highest incidence of cancer in...
Gene methylation has been frequently observed in lung cancer. However, the use of methylated genes in bronchial aspirates of patients with lung cancer remains to be evaluated. The purpose of this study was to analyze whether the detection of genes with aberrant promoter methylation can be useful noninvasive biomarkers in bronchial aspirates from lung cancer. We found that the methylation status...
Impact of RASSF1A gene methylation on the metastatic axillary nodal status in breast cancer patients
Hypermethylation of CpG islands is a hallmark of cancer and occurs at an early stage in breast tumorigenesis. To gain insight into the epigenetic switches that may promote and/or contribute to the initial neoplastic events during breast carcinogenesis, the present study focused on the DNA methylation profile of invasive breast carcinoma. The aim of the study was to evaluate the prognostic signi...
Aurora B is critically involved in ensuring proper cytokinesis and maintaining genomic stability. The tumor suppressor RASSF1A regulates cell cycle progression by regulating mitotic progression, G(1)-S transition, and microtubule stability. We previously reported that both Aurora A and Aurora B phosphorylate RASSF1A, and showed that phosphorylation of RASSF1A by Aurora A blocks the inhibitory f...
Aberrant promoter methylation of tumor relevant genes frequently occurs in early steps of carcinogenesis and during tumor progression. Epigenetic alterations could be used as potential biomarkers for early detection and for prediction of prognosis and therapy response in lung cancer. The present study quantitatively analyzed the methylation status of known and potential gatekeeper and tumor sup...
AIMS AND BACKGROUND To explore the relationship between methylation in promoter region 2 of the Ras association domain family 1A (RASSF1A) gene and cervical squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) in Uigur women living in the Xinjiang province of China. METHODS AND STUDY DESIGN Methylation-specific polymerase chain reaction (MSP) was used to analyze 40 normal cervical epithelium samples and 65 cervical...
PURPOSE To compare the methylation status of tumor-associated genes by quantitative pyrosequencing and qualitative methylation-specific PCR (MSP) techniques and to correlate the results with clinicopathologic features and patients outcome to determine which method might have greater clinical utility. EXPERIMENTAL DESIGN The hypermethylation status of the retinoid acid receptor beta2 (RARbeta2...
