Methylation Patterns Provide Hints about Cancer Expansion

Mar 03, 2009

NEW YORK (GenomeWeb News) – In a paper scheduled to appear online this week in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, scientists used DNA methylation patterns to gauge what happens during cancer-related cellular expansions, as a lone cancerous cell progresses to become a tumor containing billions of cells.
