Comprehensive methylation analysis of imprinting-associated differentially methylated regions in colorectal cancer

Abstract Background Imprinted genes are regulated by DNA methylation at imprinting-associated differentially methylated regions (iDMRs). Abnormal expression of imprinted genes is implicated in imprinting disorders and tumors. In colorectal cancer (CRC), methylation and imprinting status of the IGF2/...
