Association of Tissue Promoter Methylation Levels of APC, RASSF1A, CYP26A1, and TBX15 with Prostate Cancer Progression

Aberrant promoter methylation is known to silence tumor-suppressor genes in prostate cancer. Using a quantitative real-time PCR assay(MethyLight), I determined promoter methylation levels of APC, RASSF1A, CYP26A1 and TBX15 in 219 radical prostatectomies diagnosed between 1998-2001, examined their co...
