From: Identification of 5 novel genes methylated in breast and other epithelial cancers
EMILIN2 expression analysis in breast tumours. EMILIN2 mRNA expression is downregulated by promoter region hypermethylation in breast tumours. EMILIN2 expression was detected by quantitative real-time RT-PCR in EMILIN2 unmethylated and methylated breast tumours (Figure 2c shows the methylation status for some of these tumours). The averages for both unmethylated and methylated samples are also shown and a t-test has been used to determine the statistical significance between the two (p = 0.018).
