DNA低甲基化可能通过减少肿瘤抑制基因的表观遗传沉默来预防肠道肿瘤的发生。Sheaffer等人在这一问题上的一项研究挑战了这一观点,表明组织特异性Dnmt 1敲除导致的严重DNA低甲基化实际上可以促进肠腺瘤的形成。
DNA hypomethylation can prevent intestinal tumorigenesis, presumably by reducing epigenetic silencing of tumor-suppressor genes. A study in this issue by Sheaffer et al. challenges this notion by showing that severe DNA hypomethylation by tissue-specific Dnmt1 knockout can actually promote intestinal adenoma formation.
