MethylScreen: DNA methylation density monitoring using quantitative PCR.
Aberrant gene silencing of genes through cytosine methylation has been demonstrated during the development of many types of cancers including prostate cancer Several genes including GSTP1 have been shown to be methylated in prostate cancer leading to the suggestion and demonstration that methylation status of such genes could be used as cancer diagnosis markers alone or in support of histology....
متن کاملTwo-color quantitative multiplex methylation-specific PCR.
In recent years, several methylation-specific PCR-based techniques have been developed to identify and characterize hypermethylation of CpG dinucleotides with the primary goal of elucidating a better understanding of the role of DNA methylation in important biological processes, such as chromosome X inactivation and carcinogenesis. The specificity of methylation-specific PCR (MSP) techniques re...

متن کاملA real-time PCR assay for DNA-methylation using methylation-specific blockers.
DNA methylation-based biomarkers have been discovered that could potentially be used for the diagnosis of cancer by detection of circulating, tumor-derived DNA in bodily fluids. Any methylation detection assay that would be applied to these samples must be capable of detecting small amounts of tumor DNA in the presence of background normal DNA. We have developed a real-time PCR assay, called He...
متن کاملA quantitative HpaII-PCR assay to measure methylation of DNA from a small number of cells.
Methylation-sensitive restriction enzymes and Southern blot analysis are commonly used to assay for DNA methylation, usually requiring DNA from about 105 cells. However sensitivity adequate for only a few hundred cells is needed in many cases, for example, the study of DNA methylation changes in germ cells or pre-implantation embryos. We earlier reported a sensitive PCR assay using primers that...
