0.020 AlteredExpression disease BEFREE We found that BPDE recruited DNA (cytosine-5-)-methyltransferase 3 alpha (DNMT3A), but not beta (DNMT3B), in a time-dependent manner to methylate the RAR-beta2 gene promoter, which we confirmed by reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) analysis of the reduced RAR-beta2 expression in these BPDE-treated esophageal cancer cell lines. 20426865 2010

Esophageal carcinoma
0.020 AlteredExpression disease BEFREE RAR-beta2 mRNA expression was significantly reduced (i.e., lower in cancer than normal tissue) in 67% (18 of 27, P = 0.001) and RAR-beta(4) mRNA was increased in 52% (14 of 27, P = 0.054) of our esophageal cancer cases. 15824151 2005
