DIAGNOSIS OF DISEASES ASSOCIATED WITH APOPTOSIS BY MEANS OF DETERMINATION OF THE METHYLATION STATE OF APOPTOSIS-ASSOCIATED GENES

摘要

The present invention relates to the chemically modified genomic sequences of genes associated with DNA transcription, to oligonucleotides and/or PNA-oligomers for detecting the cytosine methylation state of genes associated with DNA transcription which are directed against the sequence, as well as to a method for ascertaining genetic and/or epigenetic parameters of genes associated with DNA transcription.
