## Abstract Prostate cancer is the most frequently diagnosed cancer in men; however, the genetic basis of susceptibility remains elusive. The __EMSY__ gene is located in the prostate cancer linked chromosome region at 11q13.5. The aim of this study was to screen __EMSY__ for sequence variants and t
## Abstract Testing for DNA methylation has potential in cancer screening. Most previous studies of DNA methylation in cervical cancer used a candidate gene approach. The aim our study was to identify novel genes that are methylated in cervical cancers and to test their potential in clinical applic
## Abstract Epigenetic change such as DNA methylation is one important mechanism for regulating gene expression as genetic change, such as mutation or loss of heterozygosity. Methylation of cancerβrelated genes has been shown to play an important role in carcinogenesis and tumor progression. Using
