ADAMTS1, CRABP1, and NR3C1 Identified as Epigenetically Deregulated Genes in Colorectal Tumorigenesis
Background: Gene silencing through CpG island hypermethylation is a major mechanism in cancer development. In the present study, we aimed to identify and validate novel target genes inactivated through promoter hypermethylation in colorectal tumor development. Methods: With the use of microarrays, t...
