مروری بر متیلاسیون DNA و نقش آن در توموری شدن سلول های تیروئیدی

Epigenetic modification is one of the effective factors in tumorigenesis. Epigenetic processes, especially aberrant DNA methylation, play important role in thyroid cancer, and many tumor suppressor genes including PTEN, RASSF1A and TIMP3 are aberrantly methylated and silenced in thyroid cancer. Because of the specified pattern of DNA methylation in various tumor cells, it is suggested that thes...

Classification and Biomarker Genes Selection for Cancer Gene Expression Data Using Random Forest

Background & objective: Microarray and next generation sequencing (NGS) data are the important sources to find helpful molecular patterns. Also, the great number of gene expression data increases the challenge of how to identify the biomarkers associated with cancer. The random forest (RF) is used to effectively analyze the problems of large-p and smal...

2 00 8 A waiting time problem arising from the study of multi - stage carcinogenesis

We consider the population genetics problem: How long does it take before some member of the population has m specified mutations? The case m = 2 is relevant to onset of cancer due to the inactivation of both copies of a tumor suppressor gene. Models for larger m are needed for colon cancer and other diseases where a sequence of mutations leads to cells with uncontrolled growth.
