View article: Methylation of SEPT9 and LINC00473 Genes in Circulating Cell-Free DNA as a Potential Biomarker for the Early Detection of Colorectal Polyps
Methylation of SEPT9 and LINC00473 Genes in Circulating Cell-Free DNA as a Potential Biomarker for the Early Detection of Colorectal Polyps Open
Background: Recently, there has been a growing amount of data suggesting the significance of long noncoding RNAs ( lncRNAs ) in controlling cellular biological processes and influencing the progression of cancer. Changes in the methylation…
