Disease: Liver carcinoma
Liver carcinoma
0.600 GeneticVariation disease BEFREE In addition, mutations in glycine-N-methyltransferase (GNMT) could be associated with a higher risk of hepatocellular carcinoma and liver disease due to an unbalanced S-adenosylmethionine (SAM)/S-adenosylhomocysteine (SAH) ratio, which leads to aberrant methylation reactions. 23474979 2013

Disease: Liver carcinoma
Liver carcinoma
0.600 GeneticVariation disease BEFREE One hundred thirty-three DNA samples (45 cirrhotic nodules, 29 LGDNs, 13 HGDNs, 14 eHCCs, and 32 progressed HCCs (pHCCs)) from HBV-infected resected livers were subjected to MethyLight analysis for nine CpG island loci (APC, RASSF1A, SOCS1, P16, COX2, SPRY2, PTEN, GNMT, and ERK), and COX2, RASSF1A, and SOCS1 protein expression status was analyzed by immunohistochemistry. 21145824 2011

Disease: Liver carcinoma
Liver carcinoma
0.600 Biomarker disease BEFREE Therefore, GNMT is a tumor suppressor for HCC and it exerts protective effects in hepatocytes via direct interaction with AFB(1), resulting in reduced AFB(1)-DNA adducts formation and cell death. 19146867 2009
