## Abstract Loss of p16^INK4a^ protein expression has frequently been related to DNA methylation in association with gene silencing. Although the methylation status of exon1ฮฑ for p16^INK4a^ involvement in various cancers has been extensively analyzed, it has been pointed out that some inconsistenci
Aberrant promoter methylation of normally unmethylated CpG-islands offers a promising tool for the development of molecular biomarkers. We investigated bronchial aspirates of patients admitted for suspected lung cancer with regard to the prevalence of aberrant methylation of potential marker genes.
