  Epigenetic Phenomenon1

Hypermethylation of SLC15A3 in HNSCC [ 1 ]

Location

Promoter (CpG island)

Epigenetic Type

Methylation Experiment Method Subtractive hybridization & microarray

Related Molecular Changes

Up regulation ofSLC15A3 Experiment Method Bisulfite sequencing, qRT-PCR

Studied Phenotype

Head and neck squamous cell carcinoma[ ICD-11:2B6E]

Experimental Material

HNSCC cell lines (FaDu, UM-SCC-14A, UM-SCC-17A, UM-SCC-38A)

Additional Notes

SLC15A3 is epigenetically silenced by promoter hypermethylation in HNSCC. Reactivated by 5-aza-2'-deoxycytidine (5Aza-dC) treatment with >3-fold expression increase. Identified through combined subtractive hybridization and microarray analysis.
