Epigenetic is the study of those alterations regulating gene expression without altering DNA sequence and inherited by transmission through cell division. DNA hypomethylation, hypermethylation of tumor suppressor genes, aberrant histone modifications and/or specific microRNAs expression profiles contribute to tumor initiation and progression. In this review, we will discuss the role of epigenetic changes in the regulation of tumor angiogenesis.

Abstract
Epigenetic is the study of those alterations regulating gene expression without altering DNA sequence and inherited by transmission through cell division. DNA hypomethylation, hypermethylation of tumor suppressor genes, aberrant histone modifications and/or specific microRNAs expression profiles contribute to tumor initiation and progression. In this review, we will discuss the role of epigenetic changes in the regulation of tumor angiogenesis.File in questo prodotto:
