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%) |
Epithelium | 0 (0%) | 0 (0%) |
*Gene methylation determined by QMS-PCR and considered positive if any methylation observed.
