The RASSF gene family members RASSF5, RASSF6 and RASSF7 show frequent DNA methylation in neuroblastoma
<p>Abstract</p> <p>Background</p> <p>Hypermethylation of promotor CpG islands is a common mechanism that inactivates tumor suppressor genes in cancer. Genes belonging to the <it>RASSF</it> gene family have frequently been reported as epigenetically silenced...
