Research Abstract |
We screened methylated DNA by using oligomicroarray analyses of prostate cancer cell lines treated by a demethylating agent and focused on APC, GSTP1, and MT1G. Prostate tissues and urine samples were used for extracting their DNA, which were subjected to methylation specific PCR. The methylation status of MT1G was significantly associated with tumor stage. These markers may have potential abilities to distinguish prostate cancer from benign prostate hypertrophy.
