Determining true HER2 status in breast cancers with polysomy using alternative chromosome 17 reference genes: Implications for trastuzumab therapy. Background: Systemic chemo- and chemoradiation ...
The methylation status of the O6‐methylguanine‐DNA methyltransferase (MGMT) gene promoter is a pivotal predictive and prognostic biomarker in glioblastoma management. Epigenetic silencing of MGMT via ...
Approximately 12–20% of human malignancies are caused by chronic viral infections. During the carcinogenic process, virus-infected cells accumulate genetic and epigenetic aberrations during the long ...
DNA methylation is a highly studied epigenetic modification that regulates genome function and plays key roles in development and disease 1. It is linked to a broad range of conditions, including ...
The visible effects of ageing on our body are in part linked to invisible changes in gene activity. The epigenetic process of DNA methylation — the addition or removal of tags called methyl groups — ...
