CpG 二核苷酸的广泛低甲基化是许多癌症的特征。逆转录转座子已被确定为细胞转化过程中低甲基化的潜在靶标。我们报告了对良性和恶性人类卵巢肿瘤中与 L1 和 HERV-W 逆转录转座子相关的 CpG 二核苷酸甲基化状态的初步检查结果。我们发现,相对于非恶性卵巢组织,恶性卵巢组织中这些逆转录元件的启动子区域内 CpG 二核苷酸的甲基化有所减少。与这些结果一致,我们发现恶性卵巢组织与非恶性卵巢组织的代表性样本中相对 L1 和 HERV-W 表达水平升高。
Wide-spread hypomethylation of CpG dinucleotides is characteristic of many cancers. Retrotransposons have been identified as potential targets of hypomethylation during cellular transformation. We report the results of an preliminary examination of the methylation status of CpG dinucleotides associated with the L1 and HERV-W retrotransposons in benign and malignant human ovarian tumors. We find a reduction in the methylation of CpG dinucleotides within the promoter regions of these retroelements in malignant relative to non-malignant ovarian tissues. Consistent with these results, we find that relative L1 and HERV-W expression levels are elevated in representative samples of malignant vs. non-malignant ovarian tissues.
