Quantitative correlation between promoter methylation and messenger RNA levels of the reduced folate carrier

BACKGROUND: Methotrexate (MTX) uptake is mediated by the reduced folate carrier (RFC). Defective drug uptake in association with decreased RFC expression is a common mechanism of MTX resistance in many tumor types. Heavy promoter methylation was previously identified as a basis for the complete sile...
