Aberrant methylation of HLTF, SOCS-1, and CDH13 genes is shown in colorectal cancers without lymph node metastasis.

PURPOSE AND METHODS: In this study, we examined the combined methylation status of HLTF, SOCS-1, and CDH13 in 61 resected primary colorectal cancers using methylation-specific polymerase chain reaction and correlated the number of methylated genes with the clinicopathologic features of affected patients. RESULTS: We found a significant difference in lymph node metastasis (P = 0.020) when we compared the number of methylated genes in colorectal cancers with lymph node metastasis to those without it. CONCLUSIONS: Colorectal cancers without lymph node metastasis frequently exhibited the aberrant methylation of HLTF , SOCS-1 , and CDH13 genes.[1]
