Loss of DNA methylation is related to increased expression of miR-21 and miR-146b in papillary thyroid carcinoma
Abstract Background DNA methylation in miRNA genes has been reported as a mechanism that may cause dysregulation of mature miRNAs and consequently impact the gene expression. This mechanism is largely unstudied in papillary thyroid carcinomas (PTC). Methods To identify differentially methylated miRN...
