Table 2.
The methylation ratio of CpG loci in BARF1p and BHRF1p before and after 5-aza treatment.
| Cell line | Treatment | Methylation rate | |
|---|---|---|---|
| BARF1 | BHRF1 | ||
| B95-8 | 0 μmol/L 5-aza | 46.7%∗ (140/300) | 32.7%∗ (51/156) |
| 10 μmol/L 5-aza | 0 (0/300) | 0 (0/300) | |
| GT39 | 0 μmol/L 5-aza | 94.7%∗ (284/300) | 99.4%∗ (155/156) |
| 10 μmol/L 5-aza | 43.0% (129/300) | 53.2% (83/156) | |
| GT38 | 0 μmol/L 5-aza | 95.3%∗ (286/300) | 97.4%∗ (152/156) |
| 10 μmol/L 5-aza | 75.0% (225/300) | 52.6% (82/156) | |
∗The difference of methylation rate is significant (P < 0.05).
