- W2970702943 abstract "DNA methylation is an epigenetic modification consisting in the addition of a methyl group to the position 5 of a cytosine in a CpG context. In normal mammalian cells, while CpG islands, mostly concentrated at promoter regions, are protected from DNA methylation, intergenic and repetitive regions are normally hypermethylated. In cancer cells, a massive change in the global methylation pattern occurs. Intergenic and repetitive regions of the genome become hypomethylated leading to the reactivation of transposable elements and genomic instability. In contrast, a focal hypermethylation of CpG islands at promoter regions occurs and it is normally associated to gene expression downregulation. Thus, aberrant DNA methylation is one of the most striking features of cancer cells and several studies have demonstrated that cancer-specific methylation patterns exist. For this reason, DNA methylation represents an extremely useful biomarker for several applications, including cancer risk definition, prediction of clinical outcomes, treatment response and cancer relapse. Finally, the association between DNA methylation and gene expression, although notoriously recognized, is not yet fully known, and the study of DNA methylation alterations in cancer and their consequences can help elucidate the mechanisms underlying this relationship." @default.
