摘要:
Biomarkers for diagnosis and prognosis of prostate cancer are provided. The biomarkers are promoter sequences have altered methylation patterns relative to normal prostate tissue. Altered expression of DNA methyltransferases (DNMT) and proteins that interact with DNMT result in increased methylation at a subset of prostate tumor hypermethylation sites.
