Global methylation analysis of development and progression of colorectal carcinoma
Ontology highlight
ABSTRACT: Colorectal tumorigenesis proceedes through well defined clinical stages assoicated with charateristic mutations. Besides genetic alterations, epi-driver genes that are aberrantly expressed in cancers in a fashion that confers a seletive growth advantage can also contribute to tumor evolution. To gain a global view of methylation patterns in normal and maliganant colorectal epithelia, we performed genome-wide DNA methylation analysis on DNAs from 48 fresh frozen CRC samples at different stages of CRC progression. We used IlluminaHumanMethylation450 Beadchip to get a broad view of genome-wide DNA methylationdata during CRC progression and identified significantly differentially methylated genes during CRC progression
