Hypermethylation of gene body CpG islands predicts high dosage of functional oncogenes in liver cancer

Changes in the DNA methylation status are commonly observed in cancer but their impact on cancer development is unclear. Here, combining DNA methylation and expression profiles from a murine model of hepatocellular carcinoma with those from human samples, the authors report an epigenetic reprogrammi...
