## Abstract Previously, the __RASSF1A__, __BLU__ and __SEMAPHORIN 3B__ (__SEMA3B__) candidate tumor suppressor genes on chromosome 3p21.3 were found to be inactivated and downregulated by genetic and epigenetic changes in lung cancer. We analyzed the methylation status of __RASSF1A__, __BLU__ and _
MCJ (DNAJD1) is a recently discovered member of the DNAJ protein family whose expression is controlled epigenetically by methylation of a CpG island located within the 5' transcribed region of its gene. Methylation-dependent transcriptional silencing of MCJ has been observed in ovarian cancers and a
