Epithelial Reprogramming of HOX Genes by Epigenetic Mechanisms and its implication to Oral Cancers
Document Type
News Article
Abstract
Whilst genetic alterations in oral cancer have long been documented, epigenetic changes are more recent. Understanding the epigenetic aspects of oral cancer by evaluating DNA methylation status through its various stages of progression and cloning the loci that are methylated at a high frequency shall lead to identifying novel genes that are linked to methylation sites. In this project the goal is to confirm the role of aberrant expression of these HOX genes in oral cancer pathogenesis using robust tissue-engineered equivalents and patient material.
