Background Genetic and epigenetic alterations are the two key mechanisms in the development of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). However, how they contribute to hepatocarcinogenesis and the correlation between them has not been fully elucidated. Methods A total of 48 paired HCCs and noncancerous tissues were used to detect loss of heterozygosity (LOH) and the methylation profiles of five tumor suppressor...
The retinoblastoma-interacting zinc finger gene RIZ1 is inactivated in many cancers, but the underlying mechanisms remain unknown. This study aimed to investigate the epigenetic mechanisms of RIZ1 inactivation by analyzing the relationship between DNA methylation and histone modifications during regulation of RIZ1 expression.Methylation-specific PCR, RT-PCR, and immunohistochemistry were performed...
