Summary data of gene methylation in tumor and normal epithelium and endothelium from 8 whole mount prostate specimens.

Histology Tissue Gene Methylation Positive* No. (%)

GSTP1 RARβ2
Tumor (n = 8) Endothelium 8 (100%) 7 (88%)
Epithelium 8 (100%) 7 (88%)
Normal (n = 8) Endothelium 2 (25%) 0 (0%)

*Gene methylation determined by QMS-PCR and considered positive if any methylation observed.
