Circulating Methylated XAF1 DNA Indicates Poor Prognosis for Gastric Cancer.

BACKGROUND:Methylated DNA in fluids may be a suitable biomarker for cancer patients. XAF1 has been shown to be frequently down-regulated in human gastric cancer (GC). Here, we investigated if XAF1 methylation in GC could be a useful biomarker. METHODS:Real-time RT-PCR was used to detect XAF1 mRNA ex...
