Research Abstract |
About the expression mechanism of aquaporin(AQP) 1, we studied to the histone modification of the epigenetics mechanism. AQP1 was not associated with histone modification directly. However, a postoperative recurrence and a stage and cell differentiation of lung cancer were associated with dimethylated histone3 lysine4(H3K4dime) which was histone modification one. H3K4dime was associated with HIF-1, too. H3K4dime is associated with extension and the grade of the lung cancer, and is important as a prognostic factor of lung cancer.
