Investigation of promoter methylation patterns association with genes expression profile of ISL1, MGMT and DMNT3b in tissue of breast cancer patients.
Article in Molecular biology reports, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled it.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND
objectivesCancer initiation and progression could influenced by both genetic and epigenetic events revealing of the overlap between epigenetic and genetic alteration can give important insights into cancer biology. METHODS AND
resultsIn this experiment ISL1, MGMT, DMNT3b genes were candidate to investigate both methylation status and expression profile by using methylation-specific PCR and real time PCR in 40 breast cancer patients, respectively, also we have assessed relation of the promoter methylation status and expression variation of the target genes. The mean level of methylation of ISL1 and MGMT in tumor tissues were significantly greater than normal tissues. In Contrast, DMNT3b gene was showed lower mean level of methylation in tumor tissue compared to normal tissues, however, this was not statistically significant. Relative expression analysis was displayed a significant reduction in expression level of ISL1 and MGMT in tumor tissues. Furthermore, there was a meaningful association between down expression of ISL1 with histological grade, Her2 and ER status. Moreover, MGMT down expression was significantly associated with tumor sizes. Any remarkable relation was not observed between DMNT3b expression level and clinic pathological features. At the end, significant relation between methylation status and expression level has been revealed.
conclusionsIn this study all observed results were exactly in line with the results were obtained from articles which were based on the methylation research and illustrate that the real-time PCR and methylation methods are in correlated with each other, furthermore, selected genes are capable to use as a potential biomarkers, however, more research on extended cases are needed.
