## Abstract Several studies have shown that Eβcadherin expression is lost during malignant transformation. We hypothesized that CpG methylation in the promoter region may inactivate the expression of the Eβcadherin gene in human bladder cancer. Normal and bladder cancer samples from 51 patients wer
## Abstract __Suppressor of cytokine signaling (SOCS)β1__ inhibits signaling of the Janus kinase (JAK)/signal transducers and activators of transcription (STAT) pathway by several cytokines and has tumor suppressor activity. Methylation of the __SOCSβ1__ CpG island has been shown to inactivate the
The tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinase-3 (TIMP-3), a recently cloned member of TIMP gene family, has been implicated in the negative regulation of tumor cell invasion and tumor growth. Down-regulation of this gene has been shown to occur in a mouse carcinogenesis model, suggesting that it might p
