The Clinical Significance of Promoter Methylation of Fluoropyrimidine Metabolizing and Cyclooxygenase Genes in Colorectal Cancer

The Clinical Significance of Promoter Methylation of Fluoropyrimidine Metabolizing and Cyclooxygenase Genes in Colorectal Cancer

Aims: This study investigated the impact of promoter methylation of flouropyrimidine (FP) metabolizing and cyclooxygenase 2 (COX2) genes on their mRNA expression and on the clinical outcome of colorectal cancer (CRC) patients. Methods: Methylation specific-PCR and real time-PCR of thymidylate syntha...
