UNBIASED DNA METHYLATION MARKERS DEFINE AN EXTENSIVE FIELD DEFECT IN HISTOLOGICALLY NORMAL PROSTATE TISSUES ASSOCIATED WITH PROSTATE CANCER: NEW BIOMARKERS FOR MEN WITH PROSTATE CANCER
UNBIASED DNA METHYLATION MARKERS DEFINE AN EXTENSIVE FIELD DEFECT IN HISTOLOGICALLY NORMAL PROSTATE TISSUES ASSOCIATED WITH PROSTATE CANCER: NEW BIOMARKERS FOR MEN WITH PROSTATE CANCER
A method of detecting the presence of a prostate cancer field defect in a human subject. The method includes (a) obtaining genomic DNA from the human subject and (b) determining methylation status in at least one target region selected from the group consisting of PLA2G16, CAV1, EVX1, MCF2L, FGF1, NCR2, WNT2, EXT1, and SPAG4, wherein methylation changes indicate the presence of prostate cancer or a prostate cancer field defect, wherein the change is relative to tissue from a second human subject who does not have prostate cancer.
