摘要
DNA甲基化是结直肠癌常见的表观遗传性改变,甲基化的异常可引起肿瘤癌基因的激活以及抑癌基因的失活,因此在结直肠癌的发生发展中有重要的意义。DNA甲基化的改变可导致结直肠癌出现不同的预后。且因为甲基化过程是可逆的,故其有望成为结直肠癌治疗新靶点。
DNA methylation has been recognized as a common epigenetic change in colorectal cancer,aberrant methylation can lead to activation of oncogene and inactivation of tumor suppressor gene,therefore this will play an important role in the genesis and development of cancer.Alteration of DNA methylation curses different prognosis of colorectal cancer.Because of reversibility of DNA methylation,it is expected to become a new target for treatment.This summary overviews DNA methylation in the prognosis and treatment of cotorectal cancer in brief.
