Research Abstract |
Cytosine methylation in CpG-island, located usually regulatory region of many genes, is well recognized as an inhibitory epigenetic regulator. On the other hand, biological significance of the cytosine methylation other than CpG-island is unclear. By focusing morphology-oriented microscopic dissection methods, we analyzed cytosine methylation status of the BAMBI gene promoter in bladder cancer and of the P16 in renal tumor of diabetic rats, and found that some of the cytosine methylation outside of the CpG-island contributes to the tumor development and progression.
