| Research Abstract |
Recently, epigenetics (Methylation of DNA, Acethylation of Histon protein, and so on) has been attracted, because it has also inherited but not only the sequence variation of DNA. Therefore, the effects of epigenetic mutation on the sensitivity to anticancer drugs were examined. As results, there was a difference in global DNA methylation among the various types of tumor cells. However, it was suggested that the global DNA methylation was not a factor of predicting the sensitivity to anticancer drugs. So, it is important for examining the relation with the site of methylation and sensitivity to anticancer drugs.
